Common questions in Hayes
Can you do a hog roast in Coney Hall Recreation Ground?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Hayes?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can you cater in Hayes?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Hayes and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
What do you need from the organiser?
Cooking is gas-fired. Power helps for lighting.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
About our hog roast for events in Hayes
A hog roast is one of the most popular stalls at events in Hayes. We cook on site and carve to order, keeping the queue moving. Whether it’s community events and PTA summer fairs, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, a vegan burger or sausage and halloumi skewers for your visitors.

Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Planning help
Planners, venues and businesses
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Space, access and the venue
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- Event approval for hot-food traders
- Room for a queue that doesn’t block paths
- Your trader requirements
As a London location, Hayes is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
