Party hog roast near Heckfield
A hog roast works for street parties as well, with the right permissions. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and crackling, and we are regularly asked to cater family reunions and milestone birthdays.
Country parties near Heckfield suit a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
How it works
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In Heckfield, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so an early-evening carve is generally in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.

Other occasions in Heckfield
Should I cook it myself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.

A green space like Wellington Country Park is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, generally the council’s.

- How many staff will carve and serve
- Plates, china and cutlery
- Arrival time and how long the roast needs
- The menu, including sides and any extras
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Find out who does not eat pork for the alternatives
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
At food time, we carve and serve, then clear up the serving area.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
Questions from Heckfield

Can you do a hog roast in Wellington Country Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Is our garden suitable?
Describe the space and the way in, and we’ll give you an honest answer.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
