Fleet questions
What’s the nearest station to Fleet?
The closest is Fleet station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
How far is Fleet from London?
About 36 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your staff will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can you set up in our car park?
Wherever your facilities team agrees, as long as it is outdoors.
What will our facilities team need?
Let us know your site’s requirements, and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
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.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Shelter for the team
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
- Sign-off for outside caterers
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll, just as they should.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.

- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the site as we found it.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

For a staff lunch in Fleet, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
