Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Count families and staff too
- Halal is not offered
Afterwards we tidy up calmly.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Romford: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast in Lodge Farm Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Romford?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can you fit around mealtimes?
We fit around the home’s routine, whether lunch or later.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we will quote.
How do you handle allergies?
Every dish comes with allergen information for your team to check.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
