About our corporate hog roast in Fareham
At an open day, you need food that serves plenty of people quickly. A hog roast does exactly that, with our staff serving and clearing. On the menu are crackling, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for staff thank-you lunches and customer days.
A staff treat in the yard in Fareham is easy with a hog roast, if the site agrees. Timings are planned around your staff event, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Fareham is about 10 miles south-east of Southampton, in Hampshire. Staff events in Fareham are part of our patch. We bring hog roasts to all 683 towns and villages in Hampshire. We cater events right across the region, from Fareham to Southampton (10 miles away).
With the A27 and A32 nearby, getting our equipment to site is straightforward. Teams travelling in by rail can use the station: Fareham station is in Fareham itself. The coast is within about 5 miles, and open sites can be breezy, so we choose a sheltered spot for the roaster.
Wherever your staff event is in PO16, PO14, PO15 and SO31, we can roast on site for your staff, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Local streets include Delme Square, High Street and Brookmeadow; a staff event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Fareham sits on or near the A27 and A32, which makes travel to your staff event easy.

Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
If the schedule moves, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.
Common questions in Fareham
Can you roast near the sea around Fareham?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
How far is Fareham from London?
Roughly 65 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you work to our lunch time?
Yes. We time the roast to be ready and serve quickly. Rolls keep service quick.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Can a company book?
Send your requirements, and the quote will include the terms.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
What a hog roast costs
Things that change the price:
- Crockery choices
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel to Fareham
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Your menu choices
- What the outdoor space is like
- The venue or postcode
- The date and time of the event
When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
