Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Some productions combine a hog roast with their usual caterer, for a wrap or a milestone. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why Cambridge Heath hosts choose us
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Clearance from trucks, kit and trees
- The location manager’s agreement
- Access agreed with locations
As a London location, Cambridge Heath is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Crockery choices
- The journey to the venue
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Time on site
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Getting an accurate quote
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
- Which meats and sides you’d like
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your shoot for a quote: use our quote form.

What happens on the day
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and in December Cambridge Heath is dark by about 3:55pm.
