Can you do a hog roast in St. Cross Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What does the production need from you?
Tell us what the production needs, and we will tell you what we can send.

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many people are eating
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Distance from us
- Site access
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help

- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Your date and serving time
- Rough numbers
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Send us your date for a quote: fill in our quote form.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Space, access and the venue

- One contact for the day
- Somewhere for crew to eat if it rains
- Access agreed with locations
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
