North Heath questions
Is North Heath too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is North Heath from London?
About 39 miles from central London.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Is lighting needed?
It gets dark early, so we will sort lighting together.
What’s included?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not provide halal meat.
Do you do Christmas fairs?
We do Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons. Tell us the pitch and how food will be paid for.
Space, access and the venue
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- Indoor space for eating
- Vehicle access close by

Looking after everyone

- Label alternatives clearly
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
Give us a contact for the evening, especially for an office party.
