About our Christmas hog roast in Wood Street Village
For a work Christmas party in Wood Street Village, a hog roast is a change from the usual set menu: hot rolls, roast turkey if you like, and crackling for everyone. Typical bookings include work Christmas parties and between-Christmas-and-New-Year get-togethers, serving apple sauce, halloumi skewers and roast turkey.
In a small place like Wood Street Village, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.
Common questions in Wood Street Village
How far is Wood Street Village from London?
About 29 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Could you cook in Broadstreet?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
Yes, a hog roast is a popular stall at Christmas fairs. Tell us the pitch and how food will be paid for.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we’ll check.
Is it too cold for a hog roast?
We roast outdoors whatever the season. Plan a warm place for guests.
Do you come to Wood Street Village?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Wood Street Village and the rest of Surrey included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.

What a hog roast costs
Things that change the price:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Travel to Wood Street Village
- Season and day of the week
- The serving time and how long we are on site
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Rough numbers
- Any venue rules
- The venue or postcode

Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. In Wood Street Village, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.
- Ask early for a December date.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Is a hog roast right for your Christmas party?
Next to a plated turkey lunch, a hog roast with turkey is relaxed and easier to serve. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
