Planning an event in Yateley?
The process
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Lunchtime bookings in Yateley 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 9:25pm.
- Tell us where, when, how many and the serving time.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
- We serve quickly within your break.
- We tidy up and leave the site clean.
Before we arrive
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
How to get a price
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the staff event is and roughly how many. A photo of the cooking area helps. Send us your details through our quote form.

About our corporate hog roast in Yateley
For a client event, a hog roast carved by a chef makes an impression. Add china and sides for a more formal feel. Typical bookings include client hospitality and new premises openings, serving crackling, spit-roast lamb and halloumi skewers.
In Yateley, team lunches tend to be at the office, unit or yard. A hog roast feeds the team on site without anyone leaving. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- How easy it is to reach the spot

A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, for the alternatives

- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
