Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Temple
Which station is closest to Temple?
Temple has its own station: London Blackfriars station.
Can you do a hog roast in Garden Bridge?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
How does payment work for businesses?
Get in touch with your details, and the quote will include the terms.
Can you work to our lunch time?
We plan the roast around your break. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Working with your venue
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why us?
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Served at the time you choose
- All the equipment comes with us
- A clear quote with everything listed
