Book a hog roast in Creekmouth

Funeral wake catering near Creekmouth

We roast quietly on site while the service takes place, so food is ready when people arrive. We serve without fuss and clear up quietly. Typical bookings include life celebrations and gatherings at clubs and pubs, serving salads, rotisserie chicken and roast pork in rolls or on plates.

In Creekmouth, a hall with outdoor space is often the easiest option. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Prices and what affects them

The biggest factors are:

  • Access to the cooking area
  • Time on site
  • Travel to Creekmouth
  • Numbers

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

What to tell us

To get the best quote, tell us:

  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • The date and time of the event
  • An estimate of numbers
  • The venue or postcode

Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.

How the day works

Here’s how the day usually runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. In late September, sunset in Creekmouth is about 7:05pm; in December, about 3:50pm, so a later wake may need lighting outside.

  1. Share the date, place and numbers.
  2. We confirm availability and send a simple quote.
  3. The roast cooks while you’re at the service.
  4. Food is ready as guests gather.
  5. We clear away discreetly.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Have a level outdoor spot ready

Planners, venues and businesses

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.

What the cooking area needs

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:

  • A hall or room for eating
  • Vehicle access near the cooking area
  • Space away from the building and any trees

As a London location, Creekmouth is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Find out who would prefer chicken or a vegetarian option
  • Plan separately if anyone needs halal food
  • Ask us to label the vegetarian food
  • Older guests may prefer food on plates

We arrive in good time and roast quietly, out of the way of arriving guests.

Serve on plates with salads and potatoes for a sit-down meal.
