Party hog roast in Holborough, carved to order
Rolls are easy for party guests to eat standing up, so hog roast rolls are ideal. Chicken and vegetarian options keep everyone happy. Whether it is back-garden get-togethers and neighbourhood parties, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, jacket potatoes and a vegan burger or sausage.
In a place like Holborough, a party at home is generally the easiest option. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we will do the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.
Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Common questions in Holborough
Could you cook in Holborough Marshes?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
How far is Holborough from London?
Roughly 26 miles from the centre of London.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can we cook it ourselves?
Yes, DIY machine hire is available. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with cooking for everyone yourself, a catered hog roast gives you the day back. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

How it works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. Sunset in Holborough is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is generally in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:50pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
