Throwley questions
What’s the nearest station to Throwley?
Faversham station, about 3.6 miles north-east of the centre.
Is Throwley close to London?
About 44 miles from central London.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Can you work to our lunch time?
We plan the roast around your break. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we will plan the vegan burgers or sausages.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Find out how many do not eat pork, for the alternatives
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
Give us a contact on site for the day, so we can find you quickly.
China crockery is available for client events, quoted separately.

- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Site access

You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover

- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
