What affects the price in Mayfield

Each price is built from:

  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Travel to Mayfield
  • The number of people
  • The serving time and how long we are on site

Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.

Details that help

For a quick, accurate price, tell us:

  • The date and time of the event
  • An estimate of numbers
  • Any venue rules
  • A picture of the cooking area

Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Send the allergen list round before the party
  • Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
  • Add dietary questions to the invite
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers

We arrive in daylight to set up and start roasting, and cook into the evening.

Ask about gluten-free rolls.

Mayfield in December: what to know

Mayfield is about 5 miles south-east of Crowborough, in East Sussex. Planning a hog roast for your Christmas party in Mayfield? We can help. We cater 289 places in East Sussex. We cater events right across the region, from Mayfield to Brighton (about 21 miles away).

For anyone getting the train home after the party, the nearest station is Crowborough station, about 3.6 miles north-west. Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as Church of St. Dunstan draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards. The High Weald National Landscape is within about a mile of Mayfield, where winter lanes can be dark and narrow, so tell us about the route.

We cover Christmas parties in every part of the TN20 postcode area and the streets around it. Local streets include High Street, Station Road and Star Lane; a Christmas party on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. For Christmas parties just outside Mayfield, we cover Wellbrook (1 mile south-west), Coggins Mill (1 mile north-east), Woolbridge (1 mile west), Argos Hill (1 mile north-west) and Rusher's Cross (2 miles north-east).

What comes off the roaster

Crackling

Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.

Mayfield: your questions answered

Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.

Is Mayfield too small for a hog roast?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

What do people get?

The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.

How much room do you need?

A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.

Can you work around our timings?

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.

What happens after service?

Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.

What if it rains?

Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

Is crockery included?

We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

What the cooking area needs

Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:

  • Indoor space for eating
  • Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
  • A lit route to the food

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Popular choices

  • Stuffing and apple sauce
  • Roast turkey
  • Rotisserie chicken
  • Crackling
  • Hog roast rolls
  • Vegan option (Ve)
  • Roast potatoes
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • Salads

Catered or do it yourself?

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

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

How it works

Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Christmas parties in Mayfield are almost always after dark: sunset is about 3:55pm in December. The cooking area is lit; the route to it may need lights too.

  1. Book early for December.
  2. We check your venue and send a quote.
  3. We arrive while it’s light and set up under cover.
  4. We serve pork, turkey and sides.
  5. We tidy up and leave.

Before we arrive

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Ask for a quote

When you’re weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. Ours lists it clearly. To get yours, send us your details through our quote form.
