Christmas hog roast for Bordon
Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Bordon
December dates book up early, especially Fridays, so contact us as soon as you know your date. We’re frequently asked to cater festive open evenings and christmas lights switch-ons, serving hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken.
In Bordon, festive gatherings tend to be at home or the hall. The roaster needs a lit spot and firm ground. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls.
Bordon questions
What’s the nearest station to Bordon?
Liphook station, about 4.1 miles south-east of the centre.
How far is Bordon from London?
About 43 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Can you cater outdoors in December?
Hot food suits winter perfectly.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do. Hot rolls on a cold evening sell well.
How the day works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. A lunchtime Christmas party in Bordon is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
