For event organisers in West Drayton
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
The process
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. At midsummer, daylight in West Drayton lasts until about 9:20pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- We check the route and send a price.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
How to prepare
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Gather dietary requirements early

Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in West Drayton
Could you cook in Lake Farm Country Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to West Drayton?
The closest is West Drayton station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Can you cater for vegans on set?
Chicken, lamb, halloumi skewers and a vegan option. Halal is not available.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Do you serve the food?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you go to remote locations?
Share the route to base and we will confirm.

What comes off the roaster

- A named contact at base
- A covered eating area
- A level spot at base for the roaster
As a London location, West Drayton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
