Questions from Addington
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to Addington?
West Wickham station, about 1.7 miles north-east of the centre.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can you do gluten-free?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Do you come to Addington?
Yes, Addington is in our area. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
Everything for serving comes with us, so all you need is the space.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal.

Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
As a London location, Addington 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 you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

How it works
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your guests, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. By late September, sunset in Addington is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and start roasting.
- Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
