Festive bookings around Weston
Weston is about 2 miles north-east of Hythe, in Southampton. We’re happy to travel to Weston for Christmas parties and the places nearby. We cater 40 places across Southampton.
If you’re organising a Christmas fair for a school like Weston Shore Infant School, hot rolls go down well. For anyone getting the train home after the party, Sholing station is about 0.8 miles away. Weston is within about 6 miles of the New Forest National Park; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning. With the sea within about 2 miles, December breezes can be cold.
For Christmas parties in SO19 and SO31, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many guests. Streets in the area include Swift Road, Scott Road and Weston 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 Woolston (1 mile north-west), Netley (1 mile south-east), Butlocks Heath (1 mile east), Hound (2 miles south-east) and Old Netley (2 miles east). Larger places within reach include Shirley (4 miles north-west), Regents Park (4 miles north-west), Townhill Park (3 miles north), Midanbury (3 miles north), Chartwell Green (3 miles north) and Harefield (3 miles north-east).
Nearby you’ll also find Gods House Tower - Museum of Archaeology (1.6 miles north-west) and Westquay (2 miles north-west). The countryside around Weston includes Netley Common.
- Local schools include Chamberlayne College for the Arts (0.5 miles east) and Woolston School (0.7 miles north)
How it works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. By about 4:00pm in late December, Weston is dark. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We set up under cover in daylight and roast through the afternoon.
- We carve and serve hot when you’re ready.
- We tidy up and go, whatever the weather.
Preparing for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Organising for someone else?
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
We serve hot rolls on cue, carved fresh.
Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Somewhere warm and dry for guests to eat
- Firm ground rather than soft lawn
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Popular choices
- Halloumi skewers (V)

DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
