Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Send the allergen list round before the party
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.
About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
Crouch End in December: what to know
Crouch End is about 2 miles north-west of Highbury, in Greater London. We set up the roaster at gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Crouch End. Crouch End is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we cater. We cater events right across the region, from Crouch End to London (6 miles away).
PTA Christmas fairs, for a school such as Rokesly Infant & Nursery School, suit a hog roast. If a church like Christ Church is running a Christmas fair, hot pork rolls are a welcome sight on a cold evening.
For Christmas parties in N8, N19 and N4, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many guests. Local streets include New Road, Park Road and Ella Road; a Christmas party on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Other places close to Crouch End we cover include Hornsey (1 mile north-east), Stroud Green (1 mile east), Turnpike Lane (1 mile north-east), Highgate (1 mile south-west) and Upper Holloway (1 mile south). Larger places within reach include London (6 miles south), City of Westminster (5 miles south), Marylebone (4 miles south), Kensington (6 miles south-west), St Pancras (4 miles south) and Shoreditch (4 miles south-east).
Other landmarks nearby include Arsenal Football Club Museum (1.7 miles south-east) and The Mall Wood Green (1.2 miles north-east). Within reach you’ll find Parkland Walk and Darland's Lake.
- Local schools include Hornsey School for Girls (within half a mile east) and Asanté Academy of Chinese Medicine (1.1 miles west)
- Pubs nearby include Queens pub (within half a mile north-east)
- Other local spots include Hornsey (under half a mile east)

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and get on with roasting and serving.

Prices and what affects them
We work out each quote from:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Season and day of the week
- Time on site
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What we need to know
Here’s what we will ask:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Where the event is
- An estimate of numbers
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Fill in our quote form.
Space, access and the venue
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- Vehicle access close by
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
Crouch End is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
