What affects the price in Wootton
There is no fixed price list, because every staff event is different. What matters most:
- The number of people
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel to Wootton
- How easy it is to reach the spot
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- A photo of the cooking area
- Rough numbers
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The date and time of the event
When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, use our quote form.
Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Wootton
Lunch breaks are frequently fixed, so the roast is timed to the minute and serve quickly. Rolls keep service fast. Typical bookings include end-of-project celebrations and client and customer events, serving salads, spit-roast lamb and hog roast rolls.
Near Wootton, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?

What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Planning the cooking spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:

Staff days in Wootton: access and travel
Wootton is about 6 miles north-west of Dover, in Kent. Wootton and the surrounding area are covered for staff events. Wootton is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent where we cater. We cater events right across the region, from Wootton to Canterbury (8 miles away).
Commuters will know that Shepherds Well station, about 2.4 miles east, is the nearest station. Wootton sits roughly 59 miles from central London. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 4 miles, which suits team days in the countryside.
For staff events in CT4, we just need to know where the roaster can cook. We can cater a staff event on streets such as Shelvin Lane, Denton Lane and Wootton Lane or the roads around them, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the roaster. If your venue is just outside Wootton, we also cover Denton (1 mile north-west), Shelvin (1 mile north-east), Lodge Lees (1 mile north-west), Selsted (1 mile south) and Breach (2 miles north-west). We also serve nearby towns such as Ashford (14 miles west), Canterbury (8 miles north-west), Dover (6 miles south-east), Folkestone (6 miles south), Ramsgate (15 miles north-east) and Whitstable (14 miles north-west).
Other landmarks nearby include Buckland Hospital (5.8 miles south-east). Within reach you will find Cheriton Hill.
- Nearby, you will find The Endeavour Public House (within half a mile south-east)
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some staff won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, for the alternatives
Afterwards we tidy up, and leave the site clean.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
How the day works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. After-work summer events in Wootton have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer and 8:45pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. By late September, sunset is around 7:00pm.

Working with your venue
