About our Christmas hog roast in Oad Street
On a cold December night, hot pork and crackling are hard to beat. The roaster cooks outside under cover and we carve hot for your festive party in Oad Street. Whether it is end-of-year team celebrations and lights switch-on evenings, we will put together a menu of hog roast rolls, roast turkey and roast potatoes for your guests.
In winter near Oad Street, we need firm ground and light. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
Prices and what affects them
There is no fixed price list, because every Christmas party is different. What matters most:
- Plates or china
- The journey to the venue
- Season and day of the week
- How many people are eating
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

These are the details we need:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- A photo of the cooking area

Planning help
Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
FAQs for Oad Street
Do you cater at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Roughly 35 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cater outdoors in December?
We roast outdoors whatever the season. Plan a warm place for guests.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Can the food be served indoors?
We cook outside, but can usually serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you need lighting?
It’s dark before 4pm in December, so we will sort lighting together.
