What affects the price in Keycol
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Crockery choices
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Keycol questions
Which station is closest to Keycol?
Newington station, about 1.1 miles west of the centre.
Is Keycol close to London?
Roughly 35 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your staff will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can you feed staff and families?
Yes. Include visitors in your numbers and we’ll plan for everyone.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
It can be as relaxed or polished as you like, depending on the crockery and menu.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Do you serve the food?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, for the alternatives
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
We serve on time, keeping the queue moving.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
