How we price a hog roast for your team
We do not use a fixed price list, because every staff event is different. What matters most:
- Season and day of the week
- Time on site
- Menu choices and extras
- Access to the cooking area
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What to tell us
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- The address or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Roughly how many people
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
Send us the date, the address or BN5 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.

Lunchtime bookings in Woodmancote are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.

Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers

We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the site as we found it.

Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.

- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
