Is Whitewood too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
When should we book our Christmas party?
December weekends go first. Send your date early.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
