FAQs for Piddinghoe
Is Piddinghoe close to London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Can you serve a fixed lunch break?
We plan the roast around your break. Rolls keep service quick.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Can it be more formal?
With china and sides, it works well for clients.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why book our hog roast in Piddinghoe
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Served at the time you choose
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Fresh carving at the serving station
Take a look at our pricing and the cost guide.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We serve on time, so people get back to work on time.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
Should I cook it myself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Who books corporate hog roast in Piddinghoe?
