Party hog roast in Littlehampton
What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Party hog roast in Littlehampton, carved to order
If you’d rather cook yourself, DIY machine hire is an option. Most hosts prefer us to do it, and spend time with their guests. Popular choices include jacket potatoes, a vegan burger or sausage and apple sauce, and we are regularly asked to cater back-garden get-togethers and engagement parties.
In Littlehampton, home and the local hall are popular party venues. Either works, given an outdoor spot to cook. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- A spot well away from the house
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Think about children’s portions
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us if timings change.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
Planning a party in Littlehampton
Littlehampton is about 6 miles west of Worthing, in West Sussex. We’re happy to travel to Littlehampton for parties. We bring hog roasts to all 371 towns and villages across West Sussex. We cater events right across the region, from Littlehampton to Brighton (about 18 miles away).
For guests coming by train, Littlehampton station is about 0.7 miles away. If you had Mewsbrook Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we can’t simply set up a roaster in a public park. The South Downs National Park is within about 7 miles of Littlehampton, so many gardens around here have a great outlook. The coast is within about a mile, so breezy days are common, and we always plan for it.
For parties in BN17 and BN16, we just need to know where the roaster can cook. Local streets include High Street, Parkside Avenue and Norman Close; a party on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Main roads around Littlehampton include the A259 and A284, which makes travel to your party easy. Nearby, we also cater parties in Toddington (1 mile north), Rustington (1 mile east), Wick (1 mile north-west), Lyminster (1 mile north-west) and Climping (2 miles west). Larger places within reach include Worthing (6 miles east), Bognor Regis (7 miles west), Chichester (11 miles west), Selsey (12 miles south-west), Shoreham-by-Sea (12 miles east) and Lancing (9 miles east).

What affects the price in Littlehampton
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- How long the roast and service take
- The journey to the venue
- The date and time of year
- Access to the cooking area
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

What happens on the day
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. At midsummer, it’s light in Littlehampton until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- You tell us the date, your address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the space and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours ahead and start the roast under cover.
- We carve and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack away and leave the garden tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Send final numbers in good time
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Planning help
Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Questions from Littlehampton
Could you cook in Mewsbrook Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
How far is Littlehampton from London?
About 51 miles from central London.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
It is worth warning them: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. They may want a roll.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Yes, and tell us how many children are coming, so we can plan quantities.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
