Planning an event in Bandonhill?
Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

FAQs for Bandonhill
What’s the nearest station to Bandonhill?
Waddon station, about 0.7 miles east of the centre.
What if our house in Bandonhill has no side access?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
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. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Do you have documents for event organisers?
Requirements vary. Let us know what you need.
Is it pay as you go?
Some events pay for a package, others want a stall. We will work it out together.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
Planning the cooking spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- Any paperwork the organisers need
- A safe distance from other traders
- The landowner’s or council’s agreement
As a London location, Bandonhill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Compared with a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. 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.

Stuffing and apple sauce
