Working with your venue
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- A level spot in the garden or car park
- Someone to meet us
- Clear of ambulance and delivery access
Surbiton Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. By late September, the light in Surbiton Park goes at about 7:05pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.
- We plan with your manager and kitchen.
- We send a quote.
- We set up outdoors, clear of access routes.
- We carve thinly and serve on plates.
- We leave the grounds tidy.
How to prepare
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Let us know about tight access
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Planning help
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Count families and staff too
Carers can help residents choose and carry plates, while we serve.
Rotisserie chicken is an alternative to pork.
Your questions about a hog roast day in Surbiton Park
Can you do a hog roast in Hampton Court Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Surbiton Park?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will fit around changes.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can you carve thinly?
We can carve thinly and serve on plates with potatoes and apple sauce.
