Is Lyneham too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to Lyneham?
Shipton station, about 1.1 miles south of the centre.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons. Tell us the pitch and how food will be paid for.
What if things run late?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Do you need lighting?
It gets dark early, so we plan lighting with you.
Is it too cold for a hog roast?
Yes, the roast always cooks outdoors under cover. Plan a warm place for guests.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, carved fresh.
Roast turkey can be added.

Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:

- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
