About our corporate hog roast in West Horsley
A summer party for staff in West Horsley does not have to mean a restaurant booking. Keep everyone on site with a hog roast. For end-of-project celebrations and client and customer events, we can cook hog roast rolls, crackling and spit-roast lamb.
Work events near West Horsley might be at a farm business, a workshop or an industrial unit. It works at any of them. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish.
Your questions about a hog roast for your team in West Horsley
Is West Horsley close to London?
About 22 miles from central London, and well within our area.
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.
Can you serve a fixed lunch break?
Tell us the numbers and the time and we’ll make it work.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
It can be as relaxed or polished as you like, with plates or china.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
The process
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. Lunchtime bookings in West Horsley are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the site clean.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
Planning the cooking spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- Approval from facilities for gas equipment
- Clearance from the building and parked cars
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- Crockery choices
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Season and day of the week
- Access to the cooking area
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

These are the details we need:
- Anything the venue has asked for
