Hungerford questions
Do you cater at venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Hungerford?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Requirements vary: pass on your list and we will respond.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do you cover Hungerford?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Hungerford and Hampshire. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
What about family fun days?
Yes. Include visitors in your numbers and we’ll plan for everyone.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, for the alternatives
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, keeping the queue moving.
Ask about china for a more formal lunch.
Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

How we price a hog roast for your team
The price comes down to:
- The date and time of year
- Site access
- The journey to the venue
- Time on site
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Details that help
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Allergies we should know about
- The venue or postcode
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast keeps everyone on site and saves travel. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What you get with us
- Serving and clearing done for you
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too

Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

What happens on the day
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In Hungerford, summer evenings stay light until about 9:25pm, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. In late September, the light goes at about 7:10pm.
- Contact us with the basics.
- We sort access and send a quote.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Service is fast once we carve.
- We clear up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
