Common questions in Anmore
Which station is closest to Anmore?
Bedhampton station, about 4 miles south-east of the centre.
Do you trade at school fairs around Anmore?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. You will get allergen details for everything.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with burger vans, a hog roast stands out at a traditional fête. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book with us
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- A choice of salads and potatoes

What comes off the roaster
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

How it works
Here’s how the day typically runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Summer events in Anmore have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, the pitch needs lighting.

- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We tidy the pitch.
