Prices and what affects them
We work out each quote from:
- Season and day of the week
- Whether you want china
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Your menu choices
- Where the event is
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to the usual lunch, a hog roast brings the event to residents. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Why book with us
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- A clear quote with everything listed
- All the equipment comes with us
- Carved by our chef in front of your residents

How the day works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. In late May, sunset in Barnham is about 8:50pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- The home tells us the date and numbers.
- We agree the cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve and serve where you choose.
- We clear away quietly.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
How to get a price
Every care home event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your care home event for a quote: use our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
