Is a hog roast right for your party?
Compared with takeaway pizzas, a hog roast is part of the party, not just the food.

Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. In Fairlight, late May sunsets come at about 8:45pm and midsummer ones at about 9:15pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Preparing for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches

What affects the price in Fairlight

- The number of people
- Access to the cooking area
- Plates or china
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Fairlight questions
Can you roast near the sea around Fairlight?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
What’s the nearest station to Fairlight?
The closest is Three Oaks station, roughly 2.2 miles away.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do children like hog roasts?
Generally, yes, so we can plan quantities.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Should we warn the neighbours?
It’s worth warning them: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. They may want a roll.

You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
