Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a formal plated lunch, it’s less formal and normally costs less. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

How the day works
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In Durley Street, 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.
