Planning a Christmas party in Steyning
Steyning is about 4 miles north-west of Shoreham-by-Sea, in West Sussex. We cover Christmas parties in Steyning. Steyning is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Steyning to Brighton (about 9 miles away).
If people are coming by rail, Lancing station is about 4.1 miles away. A winter fair at a school like Steyning CofE Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. The coast is within about 5 miles of Steyning, and winter sea winds can be bitter, so plan somewhere warm for guests to eat.

Whether your Christmas party is on High Street, Market Field and Dog Lane or anywhere nearby, we can set up and roast there.

Planning the cooking spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- Indoor space for eating
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
Popular choices
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Crackling
- Salads

- Hog roast rolls
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Roast turkey

- Roast potatoes
The process
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. Sunset in Steyning in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- Ask early for a December date.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it’s light and set up under cover.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We tidy up and leave.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

A hog roast compared with other options

- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Planned to your running order
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The journey to the venue
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Anything the venue has asked for
To get a quote, just send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.
