Hog roast hire in Northney, slow-roasted on site
In Northney, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. The idea is always the same: slow roasting at your venue, then carving and serving. Whether it is festive gatherings and milestone birthdays, we’ll put together a menu of coleslaw, halloumi skewers and crackling.
In a small place like Northney, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and level, firm ground is the key. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Planning a hog roast in Northney
Northney is about 3 miles south-east of Havant, in Hampshire. We cater events of every size in Northney. We cover all 683 towns and villages across Hampshire. Our bookings stretch from Northney to Southampton (about 20 miles away).
Coming by train? The closest railway station is Warblington station, roughly 1.7 miles north of the centre. For a fundraiser at a school like Warblington School, the roaster can cook on a pitch agreed with the school. The coast is within about 4 miles of Northney, and coastal sites can be windy. We think about wind when choosing the cooking spot and putting up the cover.
We cover events in every part of PO11 and the streets around it. Whether your event is on Northney Lane, Spinnaker Grange and Northney Road or anywhere nearby, we can set up and roast there. We also bring hog roasts to events in North Hayling (1 mile south), Warblington (1 mile north), Tye (1 mile south), Stoke (1 mile south-west) and Langstone (1 mile north-west). Further out, we also cater in Gosport (8 miles west), Havant (3 miles north-west), Fareham (10 miles west), Horndean (6 miles north), Waterlooville (5 miles north-west) and Petersfield (12 miles north).
A little further out are Havant Museum (1.7 miles north-west) and Havant War Memorial Hospital (2.1 miles north-west). The countryside around Northney includes Hayling Billy.
- Pubs nearby include The Ship Inn (1 mile north-west)
Questions from Northney
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Peter: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you do a hog roast in Eames Farm?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Is all of Hampshire covered?
All of Hampshire is in our area. Send us the address for a quote.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
The hog is the centrepiece, but lamb and chicken can be added.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
A hog roast has one downside: it’s pork. That is why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option for anyone who does not eat it. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why book with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Our staff serve and clear
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
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.
How we price a hog roast
Each price is built from:
- Menu choices and extras
- Time on site
- Crockery choices
- Numbers
Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
What to tell us
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Any venue rules
- Dietary requirements
- What the outdoor space is like
- Your menu choices
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
We’ll be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.

- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and start roasting.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
