Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Care home hog roast for your care home event in Spitalfields
Staff thank-you lunches are another reason homes book us. We’re frequently asked to cater milestone days for the home and retirement community days, with roast potatoes, apple sauce and new potatoes.
Around Spitalfields, getting equipment to a care home garden can mean a side gate or a rear entrance, so we agree access and timings with the home first. Timings are planned around your care home event, working back from when you want to eat.

Your questions about a hog roast day in Spitalfields
Which station is closest to Spitalfields?
Spitalfields has its own station: London Liverpool Street station.
What if our house in Spitalfields has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Who serves?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
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.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a buffet, hot carved pork on a plate is easier to manage for many residents. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What you get with us
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
