- Season and day of the week
- Whether you want china
- The serving time and how long we are on site
The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

How our Christmas hog roast works in Lawrence Hill
Christmas get-togethers can mean plenty of people, and a hog roast means nobody spends the day cooking. We serve rotisserie chicken, apple sauce and roast potatoes, and we are frequently booked for christmas family parties and end-of-year team celebrations.
Around Lawrence Hill, Christmas parties are frequently at home, the village hall or a club. We need firm ground and some light. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
Name someone to meet us, especially for an office party.
Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
- A short route for our equipment
- Hardstanding if possible in winter
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Lawrence Hill questions
Which station is closest to Lawrence Hill?
The closest is Bracknell station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
How far is Lawrence Hill from London?
About 28 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do you come to Lawrence Hill?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Lawrence Hill and the rest of Bracknell Forest included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
What’s the price?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
