FAQs for Tadmarton
Do you come out to small places like Tadmarton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Tadmarton from London?
Roughly 68 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
What about guests who do not 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 comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
How quickly can you cater a wake?
Usually. Contact us as soon as you have a date and we will answer right away.
What a hog roast costs
The biggest factors are:
- Distance from us
- The number of people
- How long the roast and service take
- Site access
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
To check the date and the space, we will need:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Allergies we should know about
- Rough numbers
- Any venue rules
To get a quote, just send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.
For event organisers in Tadmarton
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
If the hall or pub provides food, ask whether outside caterers are allowed. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
