FAQs for Middle Aston
How far is Middle Aston from London?
Roughly 60 miles from the centre of London.

Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
Do you do wrap parties?
Yes, a hog roast suits a relaxed wrap party, with lamb or chicken if you like.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

How it works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. By late September, sunset near Middle Aston is about 7:10pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
