Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Hyde End
How far is Hyde End from London?
Roughly 28 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What’s the nearest station to Hyde End?
Great Missenden station, about 1.8 miles west of the centre.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
What does the production need from you?
Send us your requirements, and we will confirm what we can provide.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your crew will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Can you cater for vegans on set?
There are chicken, lamb, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not offer halal meat.

The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A named contact at base
- The location manager’s agreement
