A country party near Little Marlow is perfect for a hog roast: roasted all afternoon and carved on the lawn. Plan shelter in case it rains. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

What affects the price in Little Marlow

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Access to the cooking area
  • The date and time of year
  • Numbers
  • The serving time and how long we’re on site

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

What to tell us

For a quick, accurate price, tell us:

  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Allergies we should know about
  • The address or postcode

Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.

What we serve, dish by dish

Crackling

The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Vegan guests can have a vegan burger or sausage, so nobody misses out.

How it works

Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Autumn parties in Little Marlow get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. Plan lights for the path and the food.

  1. Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
  2. We check the garden or drive and quote.
  3. We set up hours ahead.
  4. We carve and serve at food time.
  5. We tidy up and pack away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Hosting a hog roast party in Little Marlow

Little Marlow is about 2 miles north-east of Marlow, in Buckinghamshire. Little Marlow and the surrounding area are covered for parties. We cover 263 places across Buckinghamshire. Our bookings stretch from Little Marlow to Reading (14 miles away).

Within reach of Little Marlow are historic houses such as Cliveden (2.9 miles south-east) and Harleyford Manor (3.6 miles south-west). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on caterers, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. For guests coming by train, the nearest station is Bourne End station, about 1.4 miles east.

For parties in SL7, we just need to know where the roaster can cook. Local streets include Church Road, Pound Lane and School Lane; a party on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. We also bring hog roasts to parties in Fern (1 mile north-east), Coldmoorholme (1 mile east), Well End (1 mile east), Burroughs Grove (1 mile north-west) and Bourne End (1 mile east). We also serve nearby towns such as High Wycombe (3 miles north), Chesham (10 miles north-east), Amersham (9 miles north-east), Beaconsfield (4 miles north-east), Chalfont St Peter (8 miles east) and Princes Risborough (10 miles north).

Other landmarks nearby include High Wycombe Castle (3.3 miles north) and Eden (3.2 miles north). Green spaces nearby include Taplow Lake and Warren Nature Reserve.

  • Local schools include Great Marlow School (1.1 miles west)
  • Pubs nearby include The Queen's Head pub (less than half a mile south-west)

Catered or do it yourself?

You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Allergies and dietary needs

You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:

  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Let us know roughly how many children
  • Add a dietary question to the invite

We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the garden to you and your guests.

Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.

Space, access and the venue

It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:

  • Parking close to the house
  • A step-free way into the garden
  • Neighbours warned about the smell

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
