It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in Bob's Park?

- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Your date and serving time

Mill Meads 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.

Evenings in Mill Meads stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; once it is dark, we need light at the carving station.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Find out who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
Let us know if the day runs late: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal.

Catered or DIY? With catering we roast, carve and serve; with hire you do the cooking. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
