About our care home hog roast in Loxford
Retirement housing and day centres around Loxford book hog roast days too, for summer get-togethers and themed days. We serve thinly carved roast pork, halloumi skewers and roast potatoes, and we’re frequently booked for community open days and garden fêtes.
In Loxford, care homes generally have limited outdoor space, so we agree a cooking spot clear of ambulance access and windows. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Questions from Loxford
Could you cook in Loxford Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Loxford?
Barking station, about 0.6 miles south of the centre.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can residents with swallowing difficulties have the hog roast?
We do not prepare texture-modified meals; we will work alongside your kitchen.

For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Sign-off from management
- A dining room, lounge or shaded garden
- Away from opening windows
As a London location, Loxford is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we serve, dish by dish
