How the day works
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. By late September, sunset in Kidlington is about 7:10pm; by December it is about 3:55pm. Light the garden path and the serving area.
- It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
- We check the space and send a clear quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve when you’re ready.
- Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.
Preparing for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Give us a contact number for the day

Things that change the price:
- The journey to the venue

FAQs for Kidlington

Describe the space and the way in, and we will give you an honest answer.
Do you do DIY hire for parties?

A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Do you need power or water?

Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours, and they may ask for a roll.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
