North Leigh: your questions answered
Is North Leigh close to London?

Is North Leigh too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Can you work around our timings?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

How we price a hog roast for the crew
Things that change the price:
- The date and time of year
- Plates or china
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Which meats and sides you choose
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- What the outdoor space is like
- The address or postcode
- Any dietary needs or allergies
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the shoot is and roughly how many. A picture of the cooking area helps. Send us your details through our quote form.
The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
For event organisers in North Leigh
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
- Plan separately for halal if needed
When lunch is called, we carve fast.
A second meat widens the menu.
