Frogmore questions
Which station is closest to Frogmore?
Sandhurst station, about 0.8 miles north of the centre.
How far is Frogmore from London?
Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
What will our event need from you?
Send us your trader requirements, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
What happens on the day
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Late-May events in Frogmore have light until about 8:55pm, while at midsummer it’s about 9:25pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.

- We discuss the package or stall options.

- We serve rolls quickly.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive

What else we do in Frogmore
What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The date and time of year
- Crockery choices
- Site access
- Menu choices and extras
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- An estimate of numbers
- A photo of the cooking area
- Where the event is
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.
A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll, just as they should.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
