Working with your venue
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
If the schedule moves, tell us: we can hold the roast for a short time.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Where the roaster can go in Fish Island
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- A contact on site
Fish Island 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.
