Party hog roast near Little Hoddington
Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a hog roast in the garden fits the bill. Your guests will smell it from the street. Typical bookings include close and cul-de-sac parties and wedding anniversaries, serving coleslaw, rotisserie chicken and crackling.
In a small place like Little Hoddington, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls.
Where the roaster can go in Little Hoddington
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees

Questions from Little Hoddington
Which station is closest to Little Hoddington?
The closest is Hook station, roughly 3.7 miles away.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
What about kids?
Generally, yes, so we can plan quantities.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Do we need to wash up?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
