Common questions in Burgh Hill
Is Burgh Hill close to London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you work around our timings?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.

Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Should we warn the neighbours?
Give them a heads-up.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
