Christmas hog roast in Grubb Street, carved to order
Swap the set menu for a hog roast at your Christmas party in Grubb Street: hot rolls, roast turkey if you like, and crackling for everyone. On the menu are roast turkey, roast potatoes and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for between-Christmas-and-New-Year get-togethers and christmas family parties.
In a small place like Grubb Street, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

How the day works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. In December, it’s dark in Grubb Street by about 3:50pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We start in daylight and cook into the dark.
- Send us your Christmas party date, venue and numbers.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve hot when you are ready.
- We tidy up and go, whatever the weather.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
