What a hog roast costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Distance from us
- Whether you want china
- Site access
- How many people are eating
For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The address or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.
