Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- How long the roast and service take
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether you want china
- How many people are eating
UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.
Details that help
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Allergies we should know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Anything the venue has asked for

- We serve rolls quickly.

For event organisers in Littleton
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

Littleton: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast in Farncombe Wood?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you come to a school fair in Littleton?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.

A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
