Questions from Stick Hill
What’s the nearest station to Stick Hill?
Hever station, about 0.8 miles north of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Stick Hill?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you work to our lunch time?
Tell us the numbers and the time and we will plan around them.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
It can be dressed up, with plates or china.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and usually better value. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Why us?
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Timed around your day

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
Add sides for a bigger lunch.
Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. If your staff event in Stick Hill runs into the evening, check the light: sunset ranges from about 9:20pm in June to 3:55pm in December.
