Corporate hog roast for Acton

Corporate hog roast in Acton, carved to order

From a small team to a whole site, we size the roast to your numbers. Give us numbers and timings and we’ll quote. Popular choices include salads, rotisserie chicken and coleslaw, and we are regularly asked to cater thank-you lunches and client hospitality.

For offices in and around Acton, the roaster generally goes in a car park, yard or courtyard, if the building allows gas cooking. Facilities teams normally need to approve gas equipment and access. You’ll know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

Our full booking checklist

Should I cook it myself?

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Space, access and the venue

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:

  • Space away from buildings, vehicles and trees
  • Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • A contact on site

Acton 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 photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Popular choices

  • Salads
  • Spit-roast lamb
  • Crackling
  • Coleslaw
  • Stuffing and apple sauce
  • Vegan option (Ve)
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • Hog roast rolls
  • Rotisserie chicken

Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Acton

What if our house in Acton has no side access?

Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

What’s the nearest station to Acton?

Acton Central station, in Acton itself.

How long does the roast need?

Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.

Can a company book?

Send your requirements, and the quote will include the terms.

What about family fun days?

Open days are a great fit, with alternatives for everyone.

Can it be more formal?

With china and sides, it works well for clients.

How much room do you need?

Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will confirm the space with your quote.

What do you need from us on the day?

Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.

About the food

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we’ll plan the vegan burgers or sausages.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.

The process

Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. For a staff lunch in Acton, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us where, when, how many and the serving time.
  2. We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
  3. We set up early and get the hog roasting.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
  5. Afterwards we clear up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
