Lidsey questions
Which station is closest to Lidsey?
Barnham station, about 1.3 miles north-east of the centre.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Where does the hog roast go?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
What about staff who do not eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
Working with your venue
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you are a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, for the alternatives
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, so people get back to work on time.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we will fit in.
Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Plates or china
- How many people are eating
- Season and day of the week
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- A picture of the cooking area
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- An estimate of numbers
When you’re weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. Ours lists it clearly. To get yours, use our quote form.

A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan staff can have a vegan burger or sausage, so nobody misses out.
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
