Festive bookings around Noke Common
Noke Common is about 2 miles north of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Wherever your Christmas party is in Noke Common, we can bring the roaster, given a suitable outdoor cooking area. Noke Common is one of 125 towns and villages in the Isle of Wight we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Noke Common to Southampton (about 14 miles away).
A winter fair at a school like Hunnyhill Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. With the sea within about 3 miles, December breezes can be cold, so plan somewhere warm for guests to eat.
We cover Christmas parties in every part of PO30. If your venue is just outside Noke Common, we also cover Parkhurst (1 mile south-east), Forest Side (1 mile south-west), Hunny Hill (1 mile south), Northwood (2 miles north) and Rew Street (2 miles north-west). We also serve nearby towns such as Ryde (6 miles east), Cowes (3 miles north), Sandown (8 miles south-east), Shanklin (8 miles south-east), Ventnor (10 miles south-east) and East Cowes (3 miles north-east). Remote sites take a little more planning, so ask early about your Christmas party.
Nearby you’ll also find Carisbrooke Castle (2.3 miles south) and St Mary's Hospital (0.8 miles south-east). Within reach you will find Briddlesford Nature Reserve and Mill Hill.
- Local schools include Medina College (1.4 miles south-east)

Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
- Count who does not eat pork
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
Give us a contact for the evening, especially for an office party.
Festive lights around the serving area look great.
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
What we serve, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, in a roll, with salad on the side.
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.
Noke Common questions
Could you cook in Seaclose Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
What about Christmas markets?
Yes, a hog roast is a popular stall at Christmas fairs. Send us the details.
How early should we book for Christmas?
As early as possible, especially for Fridays and Saturdays. Send your date early.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?
Roast turkey can be added for Christmas, alongside the pork.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Planners, venues and businesses
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a restaurant Christmas party, you avoid set-menu prices and keep everyone in one place. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
