World's End: your questions answered

How far is World's End from London?

About 37 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

What’s the nearest station to World's End?

Wivelsfield station, in World's End itself.

What happens in bad weather?

Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

Is crockery included?

We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

Do you serve the food?

You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.

Is there a non-pork option?

We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.

Where does the hog roast go?

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.

When do you start roasting?

A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.

Before you choose a spot

The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:

  • Sign-off from management
  • Flat ground in the grounds
  • A named contact on the day

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

About the food

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.

Roast pork

The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.

Allergies and dietary needs

Some residents will not eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Count residents who need an alternative
  • Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
  • Halal is not offered
  • Include staff and visitors in your numbers

A named contact in the home helps on the day.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

How it works

Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. In late May, sunset in World's End is about 8:50pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.

  1. We plan with your manager and kitchen.
  2. We send a quote.
  3. We cook in the grounds.
  4. Food goes out on plates.
  5. We leave the grounds tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
