Questions from Meadvale
Is Meadvale close to London?
About 19 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you cater at venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is lighting needed?
Yes: the cooking area, serving table and path need lighting after dark. Let us know what lighting the venue has.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Is it too cold for a hog roast?
Yes, the roast always cooks outdoors under cover. Guests will want somewhere warm and dry to eat.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Working with your venue
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, carved fresh.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Perfect for your Christmas party in Meadvale
We serve and tidy, even on a wet, dark night.
