Netherne on-the-Hill questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Netherne on-the-Hill?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
What’s the nearest station to Netherne on-the-Hill?
The closest is Coulsdon South station, roughly 1.6 miles away.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every Christmas party is different. What matters most:
- The journey to the venue
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What to tell us
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- Roughly how many people
- Your date and serving time
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs or allergies
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.
