Hook End questions
Is Hook End too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to Hook End?
The closest is Pangbourne station, roughly 3.8 miles away.
Do we need our own staff?
You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
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’ll check.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
It can be as relaxed or polished as you like, with plates or china.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Planning the cooking spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Sign-off for outside caterers
- Space away from buildings, vehicles and trees
- Somewhere to park our vehicle
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
What we serve
- Crackling
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Salads
- Spit-roast lamb
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Hog roast rolls
- Coleslaw
- Rotisserie chicken

Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
