Space, access and the venue

Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:

  • Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
  • Vehicle access close by
  • Indoor space for eating

Woodside Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to:

  • Site access
  • Crockery choices
  • Menu choices and extras
  • Numbers

The main driver is numbers: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Allergies we should know about
  • Roughly how many people
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • A picture of the cooking area

We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Use our quote form.

Catered or do it yourself?

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

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.

Woodside Park questions

Could you cook in Swan Lane Open Space?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Which station is closest to Woodside Park?

The closest is Oakleigh Park station, roughly 1.6 miles away.

Can you cater outdoors in December?

Hot food suits winter perfectly, as long as guests have shelter.

What if it rains?

We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

What about coeliacs?

Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.

What do you need from us on the day?

Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

Do you serve the food?

We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.

Can you trade at our Christmas fair?

We do Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons. Tell us the pitch and how food will be paid for.

How the day works

Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. A lunchtime Christmas party in Woodside Park is the only one in good daylight, as it is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

  1. Ask early for a December date.
  2. We check your venue and send a quote.
  3. We set up under cover in daylight.
  4. We serve pork, turkey and sides.
  5. We tidy up and leave.

Preparing for the day

  • Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before

Planners, venues and businesses

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

What we serve, dish by dish

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.

Roast pork

We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy.

Perfect for your Christmas party in Woodside Park
