Woolley Green questions
Which station is closest to Woolley Green?
Maidenhead station, about 2.3 miles east of the centre.
Is Woolley Green close to London?
Roughly 29 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
There are chicken, vegetarian and vegan alternatives. We do not offer halal meat.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Can you cater in Woolley Green?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Woolley Green and Windsor and Maidenhead. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

- Check with family about dietary needs
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Find out who would prefer chicken or a vegetarian option
Our staff are discreet and respectful.
Add chicken as an alternative.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- Numbers
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Distance from us
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Details that help
When you contact us, it helps to include:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- A picture of the cooking area
- Any venue rules
- The venue or postcode
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.
The process
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In winter, it is dark in Woolley Green by about 3:55pm, so for an afternoon wake, light near the serving area and the door helps. In summer, there’s daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Contact us as soon as you have a date.
- We confirm the space.
- We cook on site.
- Our staff serve without fuss.
- We tidy up and go.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
