- Service is fast once we carve.
- We leave the site clean.
Getting ready for the day

Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
We set up on the agreed spot, frequently first thing, and the roast cooks through the morning.
If it is a themed open day, tell us and we will fit in.
What affects the price in Passfield
The price comes down to:
- How long the roast and service take
- The date and time of year
- How many people are eating
- Which meats and sides you choose
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
What to tell us
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Roughly how many people
- A photo of the cooking area
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs or allergies
When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, use our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

Passfield: your questions answered
Is Passfield too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you cater at venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Can you feed staff and families?
We do. Give us total numbers and we will plan for everyone.
Can we just hire the roaster?

Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
