High Cross: your questions answered
How far is High Cross from London?
About 39 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like High Cross?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Let us know your site’s requirements, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What about family fun days?
Open days are a great fit, with alternatives for everyone.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a formal plated lunch, it’s less formal and normally costs less. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

What comes off the roaster
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, especially for staff who don’t eat pork.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.
Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, for the alternatives
Give us a contact on site for the day.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days.
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
How it works
Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. In High Cross, summer evenings stay light until about 9:20pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. By late September, sunset is around 7:05pm.
- Tell us where, when, how many and the serving time.
- We check site access and send a price.
- We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
- We serve quickly within your break.
- We pack away and leave the site as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
