How our hog roast for events works in Single Street
How the food is paid for depends on the event: a catered package paid by the organiser, or a stall selling to visitors. Let us know what you have in mind. For school fairs and sports days and community events, we will put together a menu of hog roast rolls, a vegan burger or sausage and crackling for your visitors.
In Single Street, community events include street parties, school fairs and markets. Public spaces normally need council permission, and we need a pitch we can reach. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A queuing area
- Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
- A vehicle route onto the pitch
As a London location, Single Street is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

- Roughly how many people

How it works
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. At midsummer, events in Single Street stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We clear up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
- Put the menu and allergen information on display

We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting, timed for the gates opening.

What else we do in Single Street
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Single Street: your questions answered
Do you trade at school fairs around Single Street?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Which station is closest to Single Street?
Chelsfield station, about 3.3 miles north-east of the centre.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can you help with a fundraiser?
We’re happy to talk it through.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with burger vans, a hog roast feels more special at a traditional fête. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service.
