Christmas across the Isle of Wight: what to know

Christmas parties across the Isle of Wight happen at offices and depots in Newport, Ryde and Cowes and at homes and halls in its villages. Every winter booking needs a lit, level cooking spot. 116 of the places we cover in the Isle of Wight are within about 6 miles of the sea, where we always think about wind when choosing a cooking spot.

Newport: If a church like The Man in the Moon is running a Christmas fair, hot pork rolls are a welcome sight on a cold evening. A winter fair at a school like Nine Acres Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. With sunset at about 4:00pm in December, most Christmas parties in Newport are after dark. We bring lighting for the cooking area; the route to it may need lights too.

Events we cater in the Isle of Wight

Hot food on a cold night is always welcome.

Here’s what people in the Isle of Wight most often book a hog roast for:

  • Boxing Day and New Year gatherings
  • End-of-year team celebrations
  • Festive open evenings
  • Work Christmas parties

Full catering or machine hire?

If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

What we serve, dish by dish

Crackling

Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Add dietary questions to the invite
  • Label alternatives clearly
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Send the allergen list round before the party

We arrive in daylight to set up and start roasting, then roast through the afternoon.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

You can combine: pork for the crackling fans, turkey for traditionalists.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Staffing on the day
  • Whether VAT is included
  • How they handle allergens and dietary needs
  • Plates, china and cutlery

The Isle of Wight: your questions answered

What’s the price?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your Christmas party for a quote.

Do December dates go quickly?

December weekends go first. Send your date early.

Do we need our own staff?

We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.

How do you work out quantities?

Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.

Do we need to provide electricity?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Can you work around our timings?

Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will fit around changes.

Can you serve inside our office or hall?

Serving inside is generally fine with the venue’s agreement.
