About our corporate hog roast in New Barnet
Long-service awards, retirements and site openings in New Barnet all suit a hog roast, as a thank-you to the team. We are often asked to cater open days and family days and milestone celebrations, serving salads, hog roast rolls and coleslaw.
For offices in and around New Barnet, the roaster usually goes in a car park, yard or courtyard, if the building allows gas cooking. Facilities teams generally need to approve gas equipment and access. Timings are planned around your staff event, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Compared with a restaurant outing, a hog roast keeps everyone on site and saves travel. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What you get with us
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

What else we do in New Barnet
New Barnet questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in New Barnet?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in Victoria Recreation Ground?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can it be more formal?
With china and sides, it works well for clients.
Is there a non-pork option?
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.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
Where the roaster can go in New Barnet
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
- A named contact for the day
- Level hardstanding or lawn
As a London location, New Barnet 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.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
