FAQs for Summerstown
Which station is closest to Summerstown?
Earlsfield station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.
What if our house in Summerstown has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Do you travel across Greater London?
We cater across Greater London. Ask for a quote.
Is our garden big enough?
It depends on the space and access more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.
Is it just pork?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the pork. There are vegetarian and vegan options as well.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.

Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which generally keeps the cost down. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups normally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why book with us
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Our staff serve and clear
- Planned to your running order
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
Take a look at our prices page and the cost guide.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
We will be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
The process
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Light matters for a long roast: in Summerstown, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
- We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact number for the day
