Bodicote questions
How far is Bodicote from London?
About 64 miles from central London.
Can you do a hog roast in People's Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What about crew who don’t eat pork?
We can add chicken, lamb or vegetarian options.
Where does the hog roast go?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
What about crew who do not eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Stuffing usually contains gluten
- Share the allergen list with the crew
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We arrive early and set up at base, so the roast is ready by lunch.
Lamb or chicken gives the crew a choice.

- Your menu choices
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Send us your date for a quote: fill in our quote form.
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 keep us posted on the day. On a winter shoot near Bodicote, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:30pm.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
How to prepare
- Name a contact for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Gather dietary requirements early
