Common questions in Anvil Green
Is Anvil Green too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Bartholomew?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Is our garden suitable?
Frequently, yes, if there’s a level spot away from the house and trees, given access for the equipment. A picture helps.
Do we need cover?
We cover the cooking area, but plan somewhere dry for guests.
Is clearing up included?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
Do you cover Anvil Green?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Anvil Green and Kent. Send us the address for a quote.
Organising for someone else?
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.

Take a look at how we price and what a hog roast costs.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- Season and day of the week
- The journey to the venue
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Whether you want china
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Details that help
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Roughly how many people
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Your date and serving time
- Dietary requirements
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Use our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours, and they may ask for a roll.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
The process
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. By late September, sunset in Anvil Green is about 7:00pm; by December it’s about 3:50pm. Light the garden path and the serving area.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We tidy up and pack away.
How to prepare
