Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
- Approval from facilities for gas equipment
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
As a London location, Kentish Town is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
Name someone in facilities or reception for the day.

Should I cook it myself?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- Distance from us
- Whether you want china
- How long the roast and service take
- How easy it is to reach the spot
The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
