Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors are:
- Plates or china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How long the roast and service take
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Rough numbers
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rules from the venue or landowner
For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or HP27 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Use our quote form.
Planners, venues and businesses
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
What the cooking area needs
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests

Full catering or machine hire?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.

- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark.
