What else we do in South Chingford
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Count who does not eat pork
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Label alternatives clearly
We serve hot rolls on cue, so food goes out straight from the roaster.
Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The number of people
- Travel to South Chingford
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Where the event is
- Your date and serving time
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- A photo of the cooking area
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: use our quote form.
What the cooking area needs
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
- Parking near the cooking area
As a London location, South Chingford is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If you’re organising for someone else, 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 you both updated.

How the day works
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. A lunchtime Christmas party in South Chingford is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

- We confirm the space and send a price.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
