Bexley: your questions answered
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Bexley?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Could you cook in Danson Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.
Do you have alternatives?
There are chicken, lamb, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t offer halal meat.
Can you work to the call sheet?
We work to your schedule, holding the roast if lunch moves.
Can you cater our wrap?
We do.
How do we prepare?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Halal isn’t offered
Name a contact for the day, generally locations or the production office.
A second meat widens the menu.
How it works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. In December, daylight in Bexley ends around 3:50pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us the base location.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We cook at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We leave base tidy.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some crew will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.

What affects the price in Bexley
There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The date and time of year
- Distance from us
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- How many people are eating
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
