Slow-roasted pork in Froyle
Party hog roast near Froyle
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We will check it with you. We serve a vegan burger or sausage, apple sauce and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater christenings and naming days and wedding anniversaries.
A country party near Froyle is perfect for a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.
Froyle questions
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary of the Assumption: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Which station is closest to Froyle?
The closest is Bentley (Hampshire) station, roughly 2.1 miles away.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
Let them know in advance, 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 confirm the space with your quote.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your party for a quote.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Generally, yes, so we can plan quantities.

Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Let us know roughly how many children
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.
What affects the price in Froyle
Things that change the price:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- How long the roast and service take
- The date and time of year
- Plates or china
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

- A photo of the cooking area

The process

A summer party in Froyle stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

- You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours ahead and start the roast under cover.
- We carve and serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.
