Planning a hog roast day in Bampton
Bampton is about 3 miles south-east of Carterton, in Oxfordshire. Bampton is well within our area for care home events. Bampton is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire where we cater. You can also see our page for Oxford, about 13 miles away.
For care home events in OX18, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many residents. Local streets include High Street, Station Road and The Pieces; a care home event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in.

What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some residents will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.
Space, access and the venue
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- Clear of bedroom windows
- A dining room, lounge or shaded garden
- A level spot in the garden or car park
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
Popular choices

Why us?
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Timed around your day
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

Your questions about a hog roast day in Bampton
How far is Bampton from London?
Roughly 64 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
Do residents have to eat rolls?
We’ll serve however suits your residents.

What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Can families and staff join in?
It works well as a day with families; just tell us total numbers.
Organising for someone else?
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We clear away quietly.

How it works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your residents will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Late May in Bampton has light until about 9:00pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- We start with the date and numbers.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- We roast through the morning.
- We serve inside or out.
- We pack up calmly.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Think about shelter for your residents
How to get a price
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your care home event: use our quote form.
