About our Christmas hog roast in Telegraph Hill
Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Telegraph Hill suit a hog roast stall: warm rolls when it is cold outside. We serve hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and apple sauce, and typical bookings are for year-end thank-yous and sports club Christmas do’s.
For Christmas parties in Telegraph Hill, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. Plan access early, as December is busy on the roads. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

- Light by the serving table
