About our corporate hog roast in Dalston
A hog roast brings lunch to the workplace. We roast on site in Dalston through the morning and serve at your lunch break. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, coleslaw and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for open days and family days and launch days.
In Dalston, lunch breaks are often short, so we roast ahead and carve fast. Tell us about site access and security. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

- The date and when you’d like to eat

How it works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. In Dalston, summer evenings stay light until about 9:20pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:05pm.
- Tell us where, when, how many and when you eat.
- We check access and gas rules and quote.
- We set up early and roast through the morning.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve on time.
- We tidy up and leave.
How to prepare
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
Getting a price

- A named contact for the day
