FAQs for Tandridge
Do you come out to small places like Tandridge?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Tandridge close to London?
About 18 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Where on site can you cook?
A car park, yard or grounds typically works, if there’s a level spot away from buildings and vehicles.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Somewhere to park our vehicle
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
