Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Your questions about a hog roast day in West Wycombe
How far is West Wycombe from London?
About 32 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like West Wycombe?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you do soft food?
Modified meals should come from your kitchen. We will share allergen and menu details.
Can you carve thinly?
Plates are often easier for residents.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
What if it rains?
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.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Count families and staff too
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
Chicken can be added.
Why choose a hog roast in West Wycombe?
Some homes combine a hog roast with entertainment, such as a singer or a garden fête. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why book with us
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- An itemised quote
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated

What we need to know
Here’s what we will ask:
- Any venue rules
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Roughly how many people
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your care home event for a quote: use our quote form.
