Organising for someone else?
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
For crew who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children normally like it too.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.
Where the roaster can go in Bexley Riverside
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A level spot at base for the roaster
- A route for our vehicle
- The location manager’s agreement
As a London location, Bexley Riverside 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’ll advise before booking.

Common questions in Bexley Riverside
Could you cook in Braeburn Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
What if our house in Bexley Riverside has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not provide halal meat.
Do you go to remote locations?
Share the route to base and we will confirm.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
