What affects the price in Knockholt
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- The number of people
- Whether you want china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How long the roast and service take
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Details that help
When you enquire, please mention:
- Where the event is
- The date and time of the event

Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Knockholt

Which station is closest to Knockholt?
Knockholt station, about 2.7 miles north-east of the centre.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What about family fun days?
Open days are a great fit, with chicken and vegetarian options for visitors.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
A closer look at the menu
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: grilled halloumi with vegetables.
What happens on the day
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. In Knockholt, summer evenings stay light until about 9:20pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. By late September, sunset is around 7:05pm.
