Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a restaurant Christmas party, you avoid set-menu prices and keep everyone in one place. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What you get with us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Planned to your running order
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too

Oakley questions
Is Oakley close to London?
Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Oakley?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
What about Christmas markets?
We do. Hot food is always popular at winter fairs.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Clearance from walls and tents
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- A lit route to the food
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
