Hog roast for events in Regents Park
How our hog roast for events works in Regents Park
Agricultural shows and country events near Regents Park are a natural home for a hog roast, on a field, serving all day. We serve rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and a vegan burger or sausage, and we are regularly asked to cater car shows and rallies and country shows.
Village fêtes and summer fairs around Regents Park are made for a hog roast. Send us the pitch and access details. Our chef carves in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How it works
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Regents Park are dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Regents Park
Do you cater at venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you roast near the sea around Regents Park?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
What paperwork do you provide?
Organisers frequently ask for a risk assessment or gas safety details. Share your list and we’ll respond.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Should I cook it myself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Organising for someone else?
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Regents Park events: pitches and permissions
Regents Park is about 2 miles west of Southampton, in Southampton. Regents Park and the surrounding area are covered for events. Regents Park is one of 40 places in Southampton we cover.
If your event is in St James' Park, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission for hot-food traders and vehicles. For anyone arriving by train, the nearest station is Millbrook (Hants) station, about 0.6 miles south-east. Within about 7 miles is the New Forest National Park, where events may have extra rules on cooking and waste; we work to the site rules. The coast is within about 3 miles of Regents Park, so for seaside events we plan a sheltered pitch.
For events in SO15, SO16 and SO17, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and a serving time. Your event could be at a house on May Road, Mill Road and York Road or the roads around them, wherever there’s an outdoor spot for the roaster. With the A33 and A3057 close by, Regents Park is easy for us to reach for your event. If your venue is just outside Regents Park, we also cover Shirley (1 mile east), Millbrook (1 mile south-west), Freemantle (1 mile south-east), Maybush (1 mile north-west) and Coxford (1 mile north). Within a short drive, we also cover Townhill Park (4 miles east), Midanbury (3 miles east), Thornhill (4 miles east), Chartwell Green (4 miles east), Harefield (4 miles east) and Itchen (3 miles east).

- Local schools include Foundry Lane Primary School (within half a mile east) and Millbrook Community School (1.2 miles north-west)
- Pubs nearby include The Crown Public House (under half a mile north-east)
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Show allergens at the stall
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
- Halal isn’t offered
- Make the stall easy to find
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who don’t eat pork.
