Questions from The Hyde
What if our house in The Hyde has no side access?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in West Hendon Playing Fields?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is mains power needed?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Do you cover The Hyde?
We do. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Do you cater open days with families?
Yes, a hog roast suits open days, with alternatives for everyone.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Step by step
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Lunchtime bookings in The Hyde are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us where, when, how many and when you eat.
- We check access and gas rules and quote.
- We set up early and roast through the morning.
- We serve within your break.
- We pack away and go.
Getting ready for the day

How to get a price

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and generally better value. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why us?
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, keeping the queue moving.
China crockery is available for client events, quoted separately.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Someone to meet us at reception
As a London location, The Hyde 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
Popular choices
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Crackling

Should I cook it myself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

About the food
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
