Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Telscombe Cliffs
Is Telscombe Cliffs close to London?
Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
What does the production need from you?
Requirements vary by production.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Allergies and dietary needs
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
Give us one contact in production, generally locations or the production office.
Add salads and potatoes for a full lunch.
