Questions from Enham Alamein
Is Enham Alamein close to London?
Roughly 62 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you come out to small places like Enham Alamein?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
Can you get to rural locations?
Share the route to base and we will confirm.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Planners, venues and businesses
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
What the cooking area needs

- Sign-off from the location
- A contact in production
- A safe distance from kit
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
