East Finchley questions
What’s the nearest station to East Finchley?
New Southgate station, about 2.2 miles north-east of the centre.
Can you do a hog roast in Lyttelton Playing Fields?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
Do guests have to eat outside?
Serving inside is generally fine with the venue’s agreement.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Is lighting needed?
It gets dark early, so we’ll sort lighting together.
