Full catering or machine hire?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

What happens on the day
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your event. In December, Amberley is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Tell us about the event.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

- Gather dietary requirements early

Compared with cold food stalls, hot food is popular in any season. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Serving and clearing done for you
- No surprises: everything in writing
Read our prices page and the cost guide.

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
