How to compare hog roast caterers

Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Aldwych

Which station is closest to Aldwych?

The closest is London Charing Cross station, roughly 0.5 miles away.

Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Aldwych?

Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

What about guests who don’t eat pork?

The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.

Do guests have to eat outside?

We cook outside, but can generally serve indoors if the venue agrees.

Is crockery included?

Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

Is turkey available?

We can: turkey and pork together suit most Christmas parties.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.

Do you need power or water?

Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.

Allergies and dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:

  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Keep vegetarian food labelled
  • Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken

At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, carved fresh.

Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.

Step by step

When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. In December, it is dark in Aldwych by about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.

  1. Send us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.

  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Organising for someone else?

For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Should I cook it myself?

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

What we serve, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
