What affects the price in East Finchley

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:

  • The serving time and how long we are on site
  • How many people are eating
  • Menu choices and extras
  • Site access

When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

Details that help

To check the date and the space, tell us:

  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Where the event is
  • Rough numbers
  • What the outdoor space is like

Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your event for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.

Why choose a hog roast in East Finchley?

Next to a burger van, a hog roast stands out. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Why book with us

  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
  • No surprises: everything in writing
  • Served at the time you choose

See our pricing and the cost guide.

Should I cook it myself?

If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
