For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
A hog roast or other catering?
If the venue has its own caterer, ask whether outside caterers are allowed. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally 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 book with us
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too

What a hog roast costs
We do not use a fixed price list, because every wake is different. What matters most:
- Crockery choices
- Numbers
- Menu choices and extras
- Distance from us
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
Details that help
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- The address or postcode
- Allergies we should know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Roughly how many people
It’s easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Flat ground outside the hall or house
- Permission from the hall or venue
- Parking close by for our vehicle
As a London location, Eastcote is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

How it works
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Summer evenings in Eastcote stay light until about 9:25pm, so people can spill into the garden.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough numbers and when people will arrive.
- You get a quick answer on the date, and a quote.
- We roast quietly while the service takes place.
- Food is ready when people arrive.
- We tidy up and leave without fuss.
Preparing for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
