FAQs for Woolwich

Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.

We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.

Catered or do it yourself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
