Holton: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Holton?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Holton close to London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.

What we need to know
To get the best quote, tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- Dietary requirements
- Any venue rules
- A photo of the cooking area
Send us the date, the address or OX33 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.
Step by step
Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. In December, Holton is dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Let us know about tight access
Getting a price
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: fill in our quote form.

- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
