Prices and what affects them

Things that change the price:

  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • How long the roast and service take
  • The date and time of year
  • Crockery choices

UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

Details that help

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Roughly how many people
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Your date and serving time
  • Which meats and sides you’d like

The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.

How the day works

From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your event in Ley Hill. At midsummer, events in Ley Hill stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.

  1. Tell us about the event.
  2. We confirm the pitch and send a price.
  3. The roast starts before the gates open.
  4. We serve as visitors arrive.
  5. We pack down and take our waste.

Preparing for the day

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Planners, venues and businesses

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:

  • Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
  • Signpost the stall clearly
  • Check other traders are not all selling pork
  • Share the event’s food safety requirements with us

We serve as the queue moves.

Tell us about any theme, such as a vintage fête.

What the cooking area needs

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:

  • Space for people to queue
  • A safe distance from other traders
  • The landowner’s or council’s agreement

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
