Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Which station is closest to Hunton?
Micheldever station, about 2.9 miles north-east of the centre.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

What will our event need from you?
Requirements vary. Let us know what you need.

Yes, if the school agrees. Send us the details.

It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, served in a roll with salads.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a volunteer-run kitchen, we take the cooking off your volunteers. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why us?
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Carved by our chef in front of your visitors
