Isington: your questions answered
Is Isington close to London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Which station is closest to Isington?
The closest is Bentley (Hampshire) station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: use our quote form.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Can you work to our lunch time?
Yes. We time the roast to be ready and serve quickly. Rolls keep service quick.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your staff will want somewhere dry to eat.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
We follow your site’s sign-in and safety rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.
If it is a themed open day, tell us.
Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Open days in Isington typically finish in daylight, but in December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so late events need lighting.
- You send us the site address, date, numbers and serving window.
- You get a check on the date and the site, and a quote.
- On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
