Founthill questions
Is Founthill close to London?
Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cater after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary?
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 typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Is clearing up included?
We tidy the serving area, so there is very little washing up.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
Do we need cover?
We bring cover for the roaster; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
Do you cover Founthill?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Founthill and the rest of East Sussex included. Send us the address for a quote.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Why choose a hog roast in Founthill?
Compared with a barbecue, no one gets stuck at the grill, and the food is ready for everyone at once. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why us?
- Served at the time you choose
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Fresh carving at the serving station
