What affects the price in Keyhaven
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel to Keyhaven
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Keyhaven questions
Is Keyhaven too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
What about crew who don’t eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
Can you cater our wrap?
Yes, a hog roast suits a relaxed wrap party.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
How the day works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and in December Keyhaven is dark by about 4:05pm.
