Common questions in Cliftonville
What’s the nearest station to Cliftonville?
The closest is Margate station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
How far is Cliftonville from London?
Roughly 65 miles from the centre of London.
When should we book our Christmas party?
As early as possible, especially for Fridays and Saturdays. Ask as soon as you know your date.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Do you cover Cliftonville?
Yes, Cliftonville is in our area. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Is turkey available?
Roast turkey can be added for Christmas, as well as the hog.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
