What a hog roast costs
Here’s what affects the price:
- Numbers
- Site access
- Season and day of the week
- Travel to Chapel Row
Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Getting an accurate quote
When you contact us, it helps to include:
- Any venue rules
- The venue or postcode
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: send us your details through our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Why choose party hog roast in Chapel Row?

- Send a picture of where the roaster could go.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you’re ready.
- We clear up so you do not have to.
Preparing for the day

- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Chapel Row: your questions answered
Is Chapel Row too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
We are gathering after a service at Douai Abbey Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do we need cover?
We bring cover for the roaster; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
Do you come to Chapel Row?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Chapel Row and West Berkshire. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
What the cooking area needs
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A level patio, lawn or driveway
- Neighbours warned about the smell
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
