Woolbridge: your questions answered

How far is Woolbridge from London?

Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London.

Which station is closest to Woolbridge?

Crowborough station, about 2.9 miles north-west of the centre.

Can you do gluten-free?

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

What space does the roaster need?

A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.

Do you bring plates?

Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.

When do you start roasting?

A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.

How do you work out quantities?

Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will talk it through when we quote.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
  • Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
  • If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option

Name someone to meet us, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.

For event organisers in Woolbridge

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

If you are a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team.

Should I cook it myself?

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.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Planning the cooking spot

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:

  • A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
  • Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
  • A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
