Film set catering in Hyde farm estate, carved to order

UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, please mention:
- The venue or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for

Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Hyde farm estate questions
Could you cook in Wandsworth Common?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Hyde farm estate?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
What does the production need from you?
Tell us what the production needs, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Is mains power needed?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
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 we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.

We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can enjoy your shoot. At midsummer, daylight in Hyde farm estate lasts until about 9:20pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.
