A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Is a hog roast right for your shoot?
Next to shop-bought sandwiches, hot food makes a difference on a long day. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Share the allergen list with the crew
- Halal isn’t offered
We work to the location’s rules.
Ask about china.
What a hog roast costs
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every shoot is different. The main factors are:
- The date and time of year
- How long the roast and service take
- Whether you want china
- How many people are eating
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Details that help
To check the date and the space, tell us:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
