What we serve, dish by dish

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Questions from West Farleigh
Do you come out to small places like West Farleigh?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is West Farleigh from London?
Roughly 29 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is turkey available?
Roast turkey can be added for Christmas, as well as the hog.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can you cater in West Farleigh?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including West Farleigh and Kent. Send us the address for a quote.
Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
