Hog roast for events in Round Street, carved to order

Common questions in Round Street
How far is Round Street from London?
Roughly 22 miles from the centre of London.
Which station is closest to Round Street?
The closest is Sole Street station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Is it pay as you go?
Some events pay for a package, others want a stall. We’ll agree what suits yours.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
A hog roast alongside cakes and teas makes a good food line-up. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

About the food
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Make the stall easy to find
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
We get to the pitch early, timed for the gates opening.

Catered or do it yourself?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
