Radfall is about 2 miles south-east of Whitstable, in Kent. Radfall is well within our area for events. Radfall is one of 922 places in Kent we cover.

Hog roast hire for your event in Radfall
The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. Typical bookings include garden parties and barbecues and festive gatherings, serving coleslaw, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes.
In a hamlet or village like Radfall, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls.

Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- Parking near the spot
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot

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
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
We will agree a contact for the day, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast.
The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll.
What happens on the day
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can get on with your event in Radfall. In Radfall, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is typically in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We check the space and quote.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Why choose a hog roast in Radfall?
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which often makes it better value. 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, which is built into the price.
