Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Stone Street
Do you come out to small places like Stone Street?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Stone Street close to London?
Roughly 22 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Do guests have to eat outside?
Serving inside is usually fine with the venue’s agreement.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Space, access and the venue
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- Vehicle access close by
- Light by the serving table
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
