What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Site access
- Season and day of the week
- The number of people
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The venue or postcode
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Rules from the venue or landowner

What happens on the day

Lunchtime bookings in Ivychurch are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.
