What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Time on site
- Distance from us
- Numbers
- Plates or china
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- An estimate of numbers
Send us the date, the address or HP14 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.
How our corporate hog roast works in The City
A summer party for staff in The City does not have to mean a restaurant booking. A hog roast in the car park or grounds keeps everyone together. For staff thank-you lunches and customer days, we can cook rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and crackling and more.
Rural businesses around The City can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a hog roast a real treat. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, for the alternatives
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
Name someone in facilities or reception for the day.
Ask about china for a more formal lunch, quoted separately.
