Space, access and the venue
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- Shelter for the team
- Space away from buildings, vehicles and trees
- Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
Chipstead 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
From the roaster
- Crackling
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Coleslaw
- Salads
- Rotisserie chicken
- Hog roast rolls
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Spit-roast lamb
Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Find out how many do not eat pork, for the alternatives
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, so people get back to work on time.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
Catered or do it yourself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
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.

Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Chipstead
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
What if our house in Chipstead has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. Daytime open days in Chipstead are rarely affected by light, but in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
