Hog roast hire for Warnford
Hog roast hire in Warnford, carved to order
A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in Warnford: a single slow roast, carved to order. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and our staff serve and clear. We serve rotisserie chicken, coleslaw and spit-roast lamb, and we are regularly asked to cater community events and summer garden parties.
In a hamlet or village like Warnford, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
What the cooking area needs
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Questions from Warnford
Is Warnford close to London?
About 56 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Is crackling included?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.

What affects the price in Warnford
We do not use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:
- The date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
- How long the roast and service take
- Whether you want 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.
What to tell us
To get the best quote, tell us:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The address or postcode
- The date and time of the event
- Dietary requirements
Send us the date, the address or SO32 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We will check the date and send a quote. Send us your details through our quote form.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. That is why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why Warnford hosts choose us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
