Care home hog roast in Micklefield, carved to order
Pork can be carved thinly and served on plates with potatoes and apple sauce, which is easier for many people than a roll. Texture-modified meals should come from the home’s own kitchen. On the menu are new potatoes, thinly carved roast pork and roast potatoes, and we’re frequently booked for summer fêtes and sheltered housing gatherings.
Around Micklefield, some homes have limited outdoor space, so we check the space with photos first. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

Micklefield questions
Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
What’s the nearest station to Micklefield?
High Wycombe station, about 1.3 miles west of the centre.
Can residents with swallowing difficulties have the hog roast?
We don’t prepare texture-modified meals; your team prepares those portions.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What about residents who do not eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A spot that keeps access clear
- Clear of bedroom windows
- Sign-off from management
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
Popular choices
- Vegan option (Ve)

What affects the price in Micklefield
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every care home event is different. The main factors are:
- The journey to the venue
- Site access
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
