Landport: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Landport?
Portsmouth & Southsea station, in Landport itself.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of All Saints: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Should we warn the neighbours?
Let them know in advance, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
Is clearing up included?
Yes, we clear up after service.
What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Add a dietary question to the invite
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, so the party carries on around us.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, quoted separately.
Before you choose a spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A spot well away from the house
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
What we serve
- Hog roast rolls
- Rotisserie chicken
- Salads
- Coleslaw
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Jacket potatoes
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Crackling
What affects the price in Landport
Each price is built from:
- How long the roast and service take
- Menu choices and extras
- Crockery choices
- Access to the cooking area
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The date and time of the event
- Any venue rules
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: send us your details through our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Is a hog roast right for your party?
Compared with a barbecue, you’re not stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and the food is ready for everyone at once. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
