Prices and what affects them
There’s no fixed price list, because every staff event is different. The main factors are:

- Which meats and sides you choose
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.
