About our party hog roast in Long Ditton
If you’d rather cook yourself, DIY machine hire is an option. Most people choose the catered option, so they can enjoy the party. On the menu are jacket potatoes, crackling and a vegan burger or sausage, and we’re regularly asked to cater ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries and leaving and retirement do’s.
In Long Ditton, a party at home is the usual choice, and access is the question. With no side passage, a rear gate or front garden may work. A picture helps. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Why choose a hog roast in Long Ditton?
DIY or catered? DIY suits confident cooks and relaxed parties; catering suits bigger parties. Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.

Questions from Long Ditton
Can you do a hog roast in Stokes Field?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Long Ditton?
Surbiton station, about 0.7 miles north-east of the centre.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can you cater in Long Ditton?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Long Ditton and Greater London. Send us the address for a quote.
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 if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.

What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- A word with the neighbours
Long Ditton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
