The City: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Which station is closest to The City?
The closest is Saunderton station, roughly 1.8 miles away.
What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Can the food be served indoors?
The roaster stays outside under cover; guests can eat inside.
Can you do gluten-free?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
We work out each quote from:
- Site access
- Travel to The City
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Time on site
For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The date and time of the event
It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
What happens on the day
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. A lunchtime Christmas party in The City is the only one in good daylight, as it is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

The City in December: what to know
The City is about 5 miles north-west of High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire. We bring a hog roast for your Christmas party to Christmas parties anywhere in The City, as long as there’s an outdoor spot to cook. We cater all 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from The City to Reading (about 15 miles away).
A winter fair at a school like Radnage Church of England Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. A Christmas fair at Church of St Paul is just the kind of event a hog roast suits. The Chilterns National Landscape is within about 2 miles of The City; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.
We cover Christmas parties in every part of HP14 and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Bottle Square Lane, Radnage Common Road and Green Lane, and a Christmas party on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. We also bring hog roasts to Christmas parties in Waterend (1 mile west), Beacon's Bottom (1 mile south-west), Radnage (1 mile north), Bennett End (1 mile north-west) and Green End (1 mile south-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Aylesbury (11 miles north), High Wycombe (5 miles south-east), Chesham (11 miles east), Marlow (7 miles south-east), Amersham (11 miles east) and Beaconsfield (10 miles east).
Well-known places in the area include West Wycombe Rural (1.6 miles south-east) and Wycombe Hospital (5 miles south-east). Within reach you will find Yoesden and Bald Hill.
