About the food

How our Christmas hog roast works in Godstone
At a Christmas fair or lights switch-on in Godstone, a hog roast draws a queue: warm rolls when it is cold outside. We serve roast potatoes, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for winter fairs and markets and year-end thank-yous.
For a Christmas party near Godstone, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Common questions in Godstone
Could you cook in Bay Pond?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
Is Godstone 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.
How early should we book for Christmas?
The earlier the better. Midweek dates are easier.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
Can you cater outdoors in December?
Yes, the roast always cooks outdoors under cover. Guests will want somewhere warm and dry to eat.

Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Catered or do it yourself?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
