The process
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. For an autumn event in Yattendon, sunset is around 7:10pm in late September, so evening trading needs lights.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Common questions in Yattendon
Is Yattendon too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you trade at school fairs around Yattendon?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your visitors will want somewhere dry to eat.
What do you need from the organiser?
Mainly a pitch and access. Everything else comes with us.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Can you sell directly to visitors?
It depends on how your event works. Tell us what you have in mind and we will talk it through.

How we price a hog roast for your event
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Plates or china
- Time on site
- Site access
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any venue rules
- The address or postcode
- The date and time of the event
Send us the date, the address or RG18 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Send us your details through our quote form.
For event organisers in Yattendon
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
