How our corporate hog roast works in Allhallows
A carving station gives a client event a sense of occasion. With china and sides, it becomes a proper meal. On the menu are halloumi skewers, coleslaw and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for site open days and summer team parties.
At country workplaces around Allhallows, a hog roast brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
We set up on the agreed spot, frequently first thing, and the roast cooks through the morning.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
How it works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Lunchtime bookings in Allhallows are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- Send us the site, date, numbers and break time.
- We check access and gas rules and quote.
- We set up early and roast through the morning.
- We serve within your break.
- We pack away and go.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
