Hardwick: your questions answered
How far is Hardwick from London?
Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Hardwick?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
How do we book for a business?
Get in touch with your details, and we’ll set out the terms with your quote.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can you send documents for facilities?
Each site is different: send us the checklist and we’ll reply.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
How we price a hog roast for your team
There is no fixed price list, because every staff event is different. What matters most:
- Travel to Hardwick
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- How long the roast and service take
- Numbers
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The date and time of the event
- Dietary requirements
- The venue or postcode
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.
What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- Level hardstanding or lawn
- Someone to meet us at reception
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
On the menu in Hardwick
- Coleslaw
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Spit-roast lamb
- Rotisserie chicken
- Halloumi skewers (V)

Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
We’ll sign in and follow site rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.

What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Next to sandwich platters, a hog roast is hot, fresh and feels like an event. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
