Prices and what affects them
There’s no fixed price list, because every party is different. The main factors are:
- Menu choices and extras
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel to Hearnden Green
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Details that help
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- The venue or postcode
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Any venue rules
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
For event organisers in Hearnden Green
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Let us know roughly how many children
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can bring everything through.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
The process
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Evening parties in Hearnden Green need a little planning: it is light until about 9:15pm in June but only about 7:00pm in late September. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.
