What affects the price in Shipton Green
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:
- Numbers
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The date and time of year
- Plates or china
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Details that help
When you get in touch, it helps to include:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- A picture of the cooking area
- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs or allergies
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: use our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Make the stall easy to find
- Show allergens at the stall
If the ground is soft, we’ll need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.

Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
