Corporate hog roast in Crampmoor, slow-roasted on site
Lunch breaks are frequently fixed, so we plan the roast to be ready on time and serve quickly. Rolls are the quickest way to serve. We’re frequently asked to cater staff summer days and long-service celebrations, with rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb.
At country workplaces around Crampmoor, we can cook in the yard. Tell us about access. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.
Working with your venue
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.

A hog roast compared with other options
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast is easier to organise and keeps people together. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

How it works
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. In Crampmoor, summer evenings stay light until about 9:25pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:10pm.

Crampmoor: your questions answered
How far is Crampmoor from London?
Roughly 68 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Which station is closest to Crampmoor?
Romsey station, about 1.8 miles south-west of the centre.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Can you serve a fixed lunch break?
Yes. We time the roast to be ready and serve quickly. Rolls keep service quick.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your staff will want somewhere dry to eat.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
Do you come to Crampmoor?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What comes off the roaster
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, and handy for anyone who does not eat pork.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, in a roll, with salad on the side.
Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
