Bowlhead Green questions
Is Bowlhead Green too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Bowlhead Green from London?
Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Is it pay as you go?
Some events pay for a package, others want a stall. We’ll work it out together.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. You will get allergen details for everything.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you trade at village fêtes?
A hog roast suits a fête perfectly. Ask for details.
Organising for someone else?
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.
