Easthampstead: your questions answered
How far is Easthampstead from London?
About 29 miles from central London.
Which station is closest to Easthampstead?
Bracknell station, about 0.6 miles north of the centre.
Can you cater a wake at short notice?
We do our best at short notice. Send the date and venue for a quick answer.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Is there an alternative to pork?
There are chicken, vegetarian and vegan alternatives. We don’t offer halal meat.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
What if things run late?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Working with your venue
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A safe distance from the hall
- Approval from the landlord or committee
- Somewhere indoors for people to eat
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
