Hog roast hire in York Town
About our hog roast hire in York Town
People book a hog roast in York Town for everything from birthdays to fêtes. The idea is always the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, salads and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for corporate events and weddings and receptions.
A place like York Town often has a village hall, a recreation ground or a pub garden nearby; any can host a hog roast with permission. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
We’ll be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Planning a hog roast in York Town
York Town is about 1 mile west of Camberley, in Surrey. We bring a hog roast to events anywhere in York Town, as long as there is an outdoor spot to cook. We cover 395 places in Surrey, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from York Town to Guildford (about 10 miles away).
After a service at Church of St Michael York Town, the hog roast can be ready at a nearby hall or house. Coming by train? Camberley station is about 0.7 miles away.
For events in GU15, GU16 and GU47, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many guests. That could mean an event in a garden on Tank Road, Vale Road and Slim Road or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. If your venue is just outside York Town, we also cover Watchmoor (1 mile south), College Town (1 mile north-west), Hawley (1 mile south-west), Blackwater (1 mile west) and Camberley (1 mile east). Larger places within reach include Guildford (10 miles south-east), Woking (8 miles east), Farnham (9 miles south), Egham (11 miles north-east), Staines-upon-Thames (13 miles north-east) and Weybridge (14 miles east).

- Local pubs include The Claude du Vall pub (0.7 miles east)
- Local facilities include Royal Military Academy Library (0.6 miles north)
How the day works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. By late September, sunset in York Town is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Gather dietary requirements early

What a hog roast costs
The price comes down to:
- Menu choices and extras
- Access to the cooking area
- How many people are eating
- The journey to the venue
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What to tell us
To get the best quote, send us:
- A photo of the cooking area
- Your date and serving time
- Dietary requirements
- Where the event is
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or GU15 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Send us your details through our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Full catering or machine hire? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. For bigger events, catering is generally the easier choice. Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.
