Slow-roasted pork in Cranham
Corporate hog roast in Cranham, slow-roasted on site
Workplaces have rules, and we work to them: access, gas cooking and the cooking area. Pass on your site’s requirements. For client hospitality and staff thank-you lunches, we can cook spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and coleslaw and more.
For offices in and around Cranham, the roaster normally goes in a car park, yard or courtyard, if the building allows gas cooking. Get facilities’ approval for gas cooking early. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

Why choose a hog roast in Cranham?
Compared with a restaurant outing, a hog roast keeps everyone on site and saves travel. The main driver is numbers: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
Name someone in facilities or reception for the day, so we can find you quickly.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we’ll fit in.
For planners, venues and organisers
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- A contact on site
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
- Sign-off for outside caterers
Cranham is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty.
How we price a hog roast for your team
The biggest factors are:
- The date and time of year
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The journey to the venue
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- An estimate of numbers
- Any venue rules
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Tell us about your staff event for a quote: use our quote form.
