Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Bloodden
What’s the nearest station to Bloodden?
Bloodden has its own station: Adisham station.
Do you cater at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do children like hog roasts?
Yes, and tell us how many children are coming, so we can plan quantities.
What about the neighbours?
It is worth warning them: roasting takes hours. Some hosts invite them over for a roll.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Do you come to Bloodden?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Find out who does not eat pork for the alternatives
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
Have a word with the neighbours first: the roast cooks for hours, and they may ask for a roll.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
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.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we will plan the vegan burgers or sausages.
