Sutton Wick: your questions answered
Is Sutton Wick close to London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do a hog roast in Albert Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Can you work around our timings?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.

Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some residents will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
