About our hog roast for events in Hayes

For a school fair, you want food families will queue for. Pork rolls, chicken and a vegan option cover most visitors. Whether it’s small festivals and church and village fêtes, we’ll put together a menu of a vegan burger or sausage, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce and more.

In Hayes, community events include street parties, school fairs and markets. Public spaces generally need council permission, and the roaster needs a pitch with clearance. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Common questions in Hayes

Can you do a hog roast in Barra Hall Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.

Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Hayes?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Can you come to our fête?

A hog roast suits a fête perfectly. Ask for details.

Can you work around our timings?

We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.

What comes with the hog roast?

The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.

What do you need from us on the day?

A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.

Do you trade at school events?

School fairs suit a hog roast. Check vehicle access with the school.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.

Hayes events: pitches and permissions

Hayes is about 8 miles east of Slough, in Greater London. We set up the roaster at gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Hayes. We cover all 764 towns and villages in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for London, about 14 miles away.

Church fêtes, at churches such as Church of St Mary, are a natural home for a hog roast. An event in Barra Hall Park means agreeing traders and vehicle routes with the landowner, normally the council.

Wherever your event is in UB3, UB4, UB8 and UB10, we can bring the roaster to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. That could mean an event in a garden on Church Road, Drenon Square and Townfield Square, wherever there’s an outdoor spot for the roaster. Main roads around Hayes include the A312, which makes travel to your event easy. For events just outside Hayes, we cover Hillingdon (2 miles north-west), Yiewsley (2 miles west), West Drayton (2 miles west), Cowley (3 miles west) and Uxbridge (3 miles north-west).

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.

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

The process

The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. At midsummer, events in Hayes stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.

  1. Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
  2. We check access to the pitch and send a price.
  3. We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
  4. We serve to order through the event.
  5. We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about tight access
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

Choosing a hog roast caterer

For event organisers in Hayes

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Is a hog roast right for your event?

Next to cold food, hot food is popular in any season. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
