Working with your venue
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Common questions in Lympne
Do you come out to small places like Lympne?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Lympne close to London?
About 57 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Where does the hog roast go?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
Can you come to a PTA fair?
Yes, if the school agrees. Tell us the date and pitch.
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Lympne are dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- You get a check on the date and pitch, and a quote.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We serve to order through the event.

Before we arrive
