Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Your questions about a hog roast in Fritwell
Is Fritwell too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Olave: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Is it just pork?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the pork. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Is mains power needed?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.

Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.
How it works
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can get on with your event in Fritwell. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Fritwell, it stays light until about 9:30pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Crockery choices
- Distance from us
- The date and time of year
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Dietary requirements
- Rough numbers
- The address or postcode
- Your date and serving time
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we will check it: send us your details through our quote form.
