About our care home hog roast in Primrose Hill
Every hog roast day is planned with your care and kitchen teams: where the roaster goes, who is eating and how food is served. Typical bookings include staff thank-you lunches and family days with visitors, serving thinly carved roast pork, apple sauce and new potatoes.
In Primrose Hill, we cook in the home’s garden or car park, as agreed with the manager. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
We arrive early and set up outdoors, following the home’s procedures.
Rotisserie chicken is an alternative to pork.

Your questions about a hog roast day in Primrose Hill
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Primrose Hill?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
What’s the nearest station to Primrose Hill?
The closest is Kentish Town West station, roughly 0.7 miles away.
Do you cover Primrose Hill?
Yes, Primrose Hill is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Do you leave the area tidy?

What affects the price in Primrose Hill
The biggest factors are:
- Plates or china
- Access to the cooking area
- How many people are eating
- The serving time and how long we are on site
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What to tell us
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- The date and time of the event
- Any venue rules
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Dietary requirements
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
