A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a buffet, hot carved pork feels more special. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

About 44 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Thomas at Cliffe?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.

Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Do we need to wash up?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
