Bedford Park questions
What’s the nearest station to Bedford Park?

Can you cater a wake at short notice?
We’ll always try. Send the date and venue for a quick answer.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give us numbers for the alternatives
- Find out who would prefer chicken or a vegetarian option
