Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
Let us know about changes: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.
What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- Travel to Headington Hill
- Site access
- Numbers
- Time on site
Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
What to tell us
For a quick, accurate price, tell us:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Allergies we should know about
- A photo of the cooking area
- Any venue rules
Send us the date, the address or OX3 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We will check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Headington Hill
Could you cook in Headington Hill Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is Headington Hill close to London?
About 52 miles from central London.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Requirements vary: pass on your list and we’ll respond.
Can you work to our lunch time?
Give us your break time and numbers and we will make it work.
Do you cater open days with families?
Yes, a hog roast suits open days, with alternatives for everyone.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you need a car park?
Most car parks and yards are fine, if there is a level spot away from buildings and vehicles.
How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. After-work summer events in Headington Hill have light until about 9:25pm at midsummer and 9:00pm in late May, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:10pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- Afterwards we clear up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Let us know about tight access
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
How to get a price
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the staff event is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
For client events, add china, sides and a second roast to make it more formal. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
