About our corporate hog roast in Tonbridge
A hog roast brings lunch to the workplace. We set up in a car park, yard or courtyard in Tonbridge, roast through the morning and serve at your lunch break. We serve crackling, spit-roast lamb and halloumi skewers, and we are regularly asked to cater family fun days and client hospitality.
In Tonbridge, team lunches tend to be at the office, unit or yard. A hog roast feeds the team on site without anyone leaving. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your staff.
For event organisers in Tonbridge
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Tonbridge
Could you cook in Haysden Country Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Which station is closest to Tonbridge?
Tonbridge station, about 0.6 miles south-west of the centre.
Do you serve the food?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Can you feed everyone in a short break?
Tell us the numbers and the time and we will make it work.
Can you feed staff and families?
Yes, a hog roast suits open days, with alternatives for everyone.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
If you’re 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.
