The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Hire the machine or book catering? DIY hire works for relaxed get-togethers; catering suits bigger parties. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What you get with us
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Timed around your day
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Sides to make it a full meal

FAQs for Crosswater
Is Crosswater close to London?
Roughly 38 miles from the centre of London.
Is Crosswater too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
Can you cater in Crosswater?
We do. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
What happens in bad weather?
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’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Evening parties in Crosswater need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Before we arrive
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
Ask for a quote
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or GU10 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Send us your details through our quote form.
