Hickmans Green parties: what to know
Hickmans Green is about 3 miles south-east of Faversham, in Kent. Hickmans Green and the surrounding area are covered for parties. We bring hog roasts to all 922 towns and villages in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages.
Nearby historic houses include Belmont House and Gardens (4.9 miles west). For most parties, a garden or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict catering rules. A green space like Mount Ephraim Gardens is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, generally the council’s. Hickmans Green is within about 8 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, so many gardens around here have a great outlook. Near the coast, within about 6 miles, gardens can catch the wind, and we always plan for it.
We cover parties in every part of ME13. If your venue is just outside Hickmans Green, we also cover Winterbourne (1 mile south-east), Boughton under Blean (1 mile north-east), Oversland (1 mile south), South Street (1 mile south-west) and Crouch (1 mile west). Larger places within reach include Ashford (11 miles south), Canterbury (5 miles east), Sittingbourne (10 miles west), Whitstable (6 miles north-east), Faversham (3 miles north-west) and Herne Bay (9 miles north-east).
Well-known places in the area include Tower keep castle at Chilham (3.1 miles south) and Eastbridge Hospital of St Thomas the Martyr (5.4 miles east). Open spaces near Hickmans Green include Blean Woods RSPB Reserve.
- Pubs nearby include The Queens Head pub (0.6 miles north)
Perfect for your party in Hickmans Green

- Allergen information for every dish

Full catering or machine hire?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
How we price a hog roast for your party
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The date and time of year
- How many people are eating
- Distance from us
- Which meats and sides you choose
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Your menu choices
- An estimate of numbers
- Dietary requirements
- What the outdoor space is like
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the party is and roughly how many. A photo of the cooking area helps. Use our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
