Wilmington for staff days and open days

Wilmington is about 4 miles south-west of Hailsham, in East Sussex. Staff events in Wilmington are part of our patch, as well as the surrounding area. We cater all 289 towns and villages across East Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 14 miles away.

Central London is about 48 miles from Wilmington. Historic houses near Wilmington include Alfriston Clergy House (1.9 miles south-west) and Michelham Priory (3 miles north). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they generally set strict rules for caterers. With the South Downs National Park within about 2 miles, rural team days are easy to arrange. The coast is within about 6 miles, and open sites can be breezy.

Anywhere in BN26, we can bring the roaster to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include The Street and Ades Field, and a staff event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. We also bring hog roasts to staff events in Milton Street (1 mile south-west), Winton (2 miles west), Arlington (2 miles north), Berwick (2 miles north-west) and Lullington (2 miles south-west). We also serve nearby towns such as Eastbourne (5 miles south-east), Bexhill-on-Sea (12 miles east), Seaford (5 miles south-west), Lewes (9 miles north-west), Hailsham (4 miles north-east) and Uckfield (11 miles north).

Well-known places in the area include Agricultural Museum (less than half a mile south) and Burlough Castle (1 mile west). Open spaces near Wilmington include Combe Hill.

Crackling

For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.

Planning for dietary needs

Some staff will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Add a dietary question to the sign-up
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
  • Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list

Afterwards we tidy up, and leave the site clean.

Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.

A hog roast or other catering?

If it is for clients, add china, sides and a second roast for a more polished feel. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why us?

  • Carved by our chef in front of your staff
  • Choices for people who do not eat pork
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow
  • Serving and clearing done for you

Working with your venue

Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.

Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

How it works

We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell generally brings people over long before we carve. After-work summer events in Wilmington have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer and 8:50pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. In late September, the light goes at about 7:05pm.

Wilmington questions

Is Wilmington close to London?

About 48 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Is Wilmington too small for a hog roast?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

What happens in bad weather?

Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

Can a company book?

Tell us what your accounts team needs when you enquire, and we’ll explain the booking terms.

Is a hog roast smart enough for clients?

Yes. Add china, sides and a second roast for a more formal feel.

Do you need power or water?

The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

What do you need from us on the day?

Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

What comes with the hog roast?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

  • Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
  • Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
