Questions from Cackle Street
How far is Cackle Street from London?
Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Cackle Street too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
Yes. Hot food is always popular at winter fairs.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
About our Christmas hog roast in Cackle Street
A Christmas hog roast brings hot food to a cold evening. We roast outdoors under cover and carve to order for your Christmas party in Cackle Street. We are frequently asked to cater end-of-term celebrations and christmas lights switch-ons, serving roast potatoes, hog roast rolls and apple sauce.
Near Cackle Street, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Cackle Street in December: what to know
Cackle Street is about 5 miles north of Hastings, in East Sussex. We take a hog roast for your Christmas party to gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Cackle Street and the surrounding area. Cackle Street is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex we cover. Our bookings stretch from Cackle Street to Brighton (about 32 miles away).
Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as The Parish Church of St George draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards. A winter fair at a school like Brede Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. The coast is within about 6 miles of Cackle Street, and winter sea winds can be bitter.
For Christmas parties in TN31, we just need to know where the roaster can cook. Whether your Christmas party is on Cackle Street, St Marys Close and Pottery Lane or anywhere nearby, we can set up and roast there. We also bring hog roasts to Christmas parties in Brede (1 mile south), Westfield (2 miles south), Sedlescombe (3 miles west), Mill Corner (3 miles north) and Kent Street (3 miles south-west). Larger places within reach include Hastings (5 miles south), Bexhill-on-Sea (8 miles south-west), St Leonards (6 miles south), Hastings Old Town (6 miles south), Belmont (6 miles south) and Heathfield (15 miles west).
Nearby you’ll also find Conquest Hospital (3.9 miles south) and Barn Theatre and Museum (3 miles south). Within reach you will find Senlac Hill and Flatropers Wood.
- Local pubs include The Red Lion Public House (less than half a mile south)
Before you choose a spot

- Parking near the cooking area
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

What happens on the day

- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Label alternatives clearly
- Count who does not eat pork
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We serve hot rolls on cue, carved fresh.
Roast potatoes suit a winter menu.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a cold Christmas buffet, hot carved meat is far more welcome in December. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What you get with us
