How we price a hog roast for your team
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Distance from us
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Time on site
- Whether you want china
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
What to tell us
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- The date and time of the event
- An estimate of numbers
- Where the event is
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.
Drayton questions
How far is Drayton from London?
About 61 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Can you set up in our car park?
Anywhere suitable and approved, outdoors and under cover.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
How does payment work for businesses?
Tell us what your accounts team needs when you enquire, and we’ll explain the booking terms.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will talk it through when we quote.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Next to a plated lunch, it’s less formal and normally costs less. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.
