Common questions in Bulverhythe

Is Bulverhythe close to London?

About 52 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Could you cook in Filsham Reedbed?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Can you roast in the rain?

Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.

How much does a hog roast cost?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we will quote.

What about the neighbours?

Let them know in advance.

What comes with the hog roast?

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.

Can you work around our timings?

Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.

Should I cook it myself?

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.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
  • Keep the vegetarian option labelled

If the party runs late, the roast can wait a little, so tell us if timings change.

Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

How we price a hog roast for your party

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:

  • Time on site
  • Travel to Bulverhythe
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Whether you want china

Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

What we need to know

The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:

  • Where the event is
  • The date and time of the event
  • Rough numbers
  • Any dietary needs or allergies

Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.

What happens on the day

Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. At midsummer, it’s light in Bulverhythe until about 9:15pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:00pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. Send a picture of where the roaster could go.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
  4. Our staff serve rolls and sides.
  5. We leave the garden tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Think about shelter for your guests
  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
