Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
- Permission from the venue or landowner
Well Hall is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

How we price a hog roast
The price comes down to:
- How many people are eating
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Site access
- Season and day of the week
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
What to tell us
When you contact us, it helps to include:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The venue or postcode
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Your date and serving time
To get a quote, just send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
How it works
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your guests, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Around midsummer it stays light in Well Hall until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
Getting a price
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
We’ll agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice, priced in the quote.
Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
A hog roast or other catering?
The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too for anyone who doesn’t eat it. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.
Why us?
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
