Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- Distance from us
- Season and day of the week
- The number of people
- Menu choices and extras
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The date and time of the event
- Rules from the venue or landowner
When you are weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, send us your details through our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Share the allergen information in advance

Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.
South Acton questions
Could you cook in Gunnersbury Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to South Acton?
South Acton station, about 0.7 miles east of the centre.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Where the roaster can go in South Acton
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
- Hardstanding if possible in winter
- Light by the serving table
South Acton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
