A closer look at the menu
Roast turkey
Roast turkey gives a Christmas party a traditional touch, served alongside the pork and crackling.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- Vehicle access close by
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- Light by the serving table
Greengate 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 you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Common questions in Greengate
What’s the nearest station to Greengate?
The closest is West Ham station, roughly 1 mile away.
Could you cook in West Ham Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Do you need lighting?
Yes: the cooking area, serving table and path need lighting after dark. Tell us what’s already there and we will plan the rest with you.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Can you serve inside our office or hall?
We cook outside, but can generally serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
Full catering or machine hire?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
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.
Planning for dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, so food goes out straight from the roaster.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What a hog roast costs
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Numbers
- The date and time of year
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Time on site
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
