Questions from North End
Could you cook in Childs Hill Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in North End?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can you work around our timings?
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.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
Do you serve the food?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What about crew who don’t eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
