Party hog roast for Farnborough
How it works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. At midsummer, it is light in Farnborough until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Show us the garden or drive.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- We cook for hours on site.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We clear up so you do not have to.
Before we arrive

Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

- A level patio, lawn or driveway
- A heads-up for next door
- Parking close to the house
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
What a hog roast costs
The biggest factors are:
- Whether you want china
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How many people are eating
- How long the roast and service take
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- A picture of the cooking area
- The address or postcode
- Any venue rules
- The date and time of the event
For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or GU14 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Use our quote form.
