For planners, venues and organisers
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.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.

- Clearance from other stalls and tents
- Space for people to queue
- Permission for cooking on the site
Kings Cross is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

How we price a hog roast for your event
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Crockery choices
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Distance from us
- How long the roast and service take
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Dietary requirements
- Where the event is
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Rules from the venue or landowner
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or NW1W postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.
