How it works

Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Sunset in Chieveley is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is generally in daylight. After about 4:00pm in December, we need light to carve.

  1. Send us your party date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
  3. We set up early and get the hog roasting.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve when you’re ready.
  5. We pack away and leave the garden tidy.

See our pricing and what a hog roast costs.

Allergies and dietary needs

We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:

  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Keep the vegetarian option labelled
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food

Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.

Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.

Planning a party in Chieveley

Chieveley is about 5 miles north of Newbury, in West Berkshire. We cover Chieveley and its neighbours for parties. We cover all 155 towns and villages across West Berkshire, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater events right across the region, from Chieveley to Reading (15 miles away).

Nearby historic houses include Shaw House (3.6 miles south) and Benham Park (4.5 miles south-west). Grand settings like these frequently have strict rules on caterers, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. Guests arriving by train should know that the nearest station is Newbury Racecourse station, about 4.5 miles south. The North Wessex Downs National Landscape is within about 6 miles of Chieveley, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.

This part of West Berkshire takes in RG20. Local streets include High Street, East Lane and Sowbury Park; a party on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. We also bring hog roasts to parties in Downend (1 mile north), North Heath (1 mile west), World's End (2 miles north-east), Winterbourne (2 miles south-west) and Peasemore (2 miles north-west). We also serve nearby towns such as Newbury (5 miles south), Thatcham (5 miles south-east), Burghfield Common (12 miles east), Speenhamland (4 miles south), Hungerford (9 miles west) and Calcot (12 miles east).

Well-known places in the area include Donnington Castle (3.2 miles south) and West Berkshire Community Hospital (4.1 miles south). Green spaces nearby include Snelsmore Common.

  • Local pubs include The Wheatsheaf pub (within half a mile south)

Planners, venues and businesses

Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.

Before you choose a spot

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
  • Parking close to the house
  • A word with the neighbours

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

On the menu in Chieveley

  • Rotisserie chicken
  • Hog roast rolls
  • Coleslaw
  • Crackling
  • Jacket potatoes
  • Stuffing and apple sauce
  • Salads
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

What affects the price in Chieveley

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The serving time and how long we’re on site
  • The number of people
  • Which meats and sides you choose

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

What to tell us

Here’s what we’ll ask:

  • Rough numbers
  • The venue or postcode
  • Any venue rules
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo

A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.
