Common questions in Highams Park
Can you do a hog roast in Lloyd Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What if our house in Highams Park has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you cater in Highams Park?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Highams Park and Greater London. Send us the address for a quote.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Do we need our own staff?
You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
About our Christmas hog roast in Highams Park
A Christmas hog roast brings hot food to a cold evening. The roaster cooks outside under cover and we carve hot for your festive party in Highams Park. Typical bookings include winter open days and society Christmas socials, with roast turkey, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls.
For Christmas parties in Highams Park, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. In London, access needs planning, as December is busy on the roads. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

About the food
Roast turkey
For Christmas, roast turkey can join the pork, carved at the serving station.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children typically like it too.
Why choose a hog roast in Highams Park?
Next to a winter barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why Highams Park hosts choose us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Timed around your day
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Whether you want china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Numbers
UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
What we need to know
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and time of the event
- Allergies we should know about
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Clearance from walls and tents
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
As a London location, Highams Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
