Should I cook it myself?
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.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Corporate hog roast in South Croydon, carved to order
A hog roast brings lunch to the workplace. We roast on site in South Croydon through the morning and carve at the time you set. Popular choices include coleslaw, crackling and spit-roast lamb, and we are often booked for site open days and summer team parties.
London work events in South Croydon often run to a tight lunch break, so we roast ahead and carve fast. Tell us about site access and security. Our chef carves in front of your staff, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What the cooking area needs
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- A contact on site
- Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
As a London location, South Croydon is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

South Croydon questions
Could you cook in Duppas Hill?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What if our house in South Croydon has no side access?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
How do we book for a business?
Let us know your company’s booking requirements, and we will confirm how booking and payment work.
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.
Can you work around our timings?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Can you send documents for facilities?
Let us know your site’s requirements, and we’ll tell you what we can send.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
We serve on time, keeping the queue moving.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we will fit in.
What we serve, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, especially for staff who don’t eat pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some staff will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
