About our corporate hog roast in Holywell
Open days and family fun days need food that copes with a crowd. One roast feeds a crowd, with our staff serving and clearing. We’re frequently asked to cater away days and retirements and long-service awards, serving coleslaw, crackling and hog roast rolls.
London work events in Holywell often run to a tight lunch break, so we roast ahead and carve fast. Tell us about site access and security. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

Holywell questions
What if our house in Holywell has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you do a hog roast in King George V Playing Fields?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Can you feed staff and families?
Yes, a hog roast suits open days, with alternatives for everyone.
Do we need our own staff?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Can you set up in our car park?
A car park, yard or grounds generally works, given level ground and clearance.

Service is fast, which suits fixed lunch breaks.
Hosts in Holywell book us for small gatherings and big outdoor days alike. Popular choices:
- End-of-project celebrations
- Team-building days
