Is Twyford close to London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Twyford too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the price?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

Do you cover Twyford?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.

How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In late September, sunset in Twyford is about 7:10pm; in December, about 3:55pm, so a later wake may need lighting outside.
- Contact us as soon as you have a date.
- We confirm the space.
- We set up and roast on the day.
- We serve quietly.
- We tidy up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
