How our corporate hog roast works in Chessington
Sites typically have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Pass on your site’s requirements. Whether it is site openings and away days, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, spit-roast lamb and crackling.
For offices in and around Chessington, the roaster generally goes in a car park, yard or courtyard, if the building allows gas cooking. Get facilities’ approval for gas cooking early. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours.

FAQs for Chessington
Could you cook in Horton Country Park?
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 get a hog roast into a London garden in Chessington?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Do you cover Chessington?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
The menu, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, carved to order at the serving station, frequently with mint sauce.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
Why choose a hog roast in Chessington?
Compared with individual food vans, carving serves the whole team fast. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
What you get with us
- Timed around your day

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every staff event is different. The main factors are:
- Plates or china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How many people are eating
- How long the roast and service take
UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Rough numbers
- Anything the venue has asked for
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Fill in our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
If the schedule moves, tell us: we can hold the roast for a short time.
Add sides for a bigger lunch.
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.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
