Events we cater in West Berkshire

Turkey and pork together cover everyone.

Whatever the occasion in West Berkshire, a slow roast goes a long way. We are often asked to cater:

  • Boxing Day and New Year gatherings
  • Family Christmas gatherings
  • Club and society Christmas parties
  • Festive open evenings

Catered or do it yourself?

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Share the allergen information in advance
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food

The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, so tell us what’s already there.

Festive lights around the serving area look great.

Prices and what affects them

We work out each quote from:

  • How long the roast and service take
  • Crockery choices
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Menu choices and extras

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • The date and time of the event
  • Your menu choices
  • Any venue rules

To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the Christmas party is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Send us your details through our quote form.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Compared with a cold buffet, hot food wins in winter.

West Berkshire questions

When should we book?

The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: use our quote form.

Do we need to provide electricity?

The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

When should we book our Christmas party?

Very quickly, so ask early. Weekdays often have more availability.

Can you do gluten-free?

We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.

Do guests have to eat outside?

The roaster stays outside under cover; guests can eat inside.

What do you need from us on the day?

Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
