FAQs for Faringdon
How far is Faringdon from London?
Roughly 65 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cater after a service at Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What about the neighbours?
Give them a heads-up, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.

Planning the cooking spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Parking close to the house
- A level patio, lawn or driveway
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Think about children’s portions
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
Ensure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
How it works
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can enjoy your party in Faringdon. A summer party in Faringdon stays light until about 9:30pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening.

- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Site access
- The journey to the venue

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate.
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
