About our party hog roast in Longstock
In Longstock, a hog roast is a favourite for birthdays and garden parties: hearty food that feeds everyone at once. Our staff serve and clear. For anniversary parties and retirement parties, we will put together a menu of hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and crackling.
In a small place like Longstock, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. The hog is roasted on site at your party, low and slow, for hours.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
If the party runs late, the roast can wait a little, so tell us if timings change.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
Is a hog roast right for your party?
Compared with a restaurant booking, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Longstock questions
Is Longstock close to London?
About 65 miles from central London.
Is Longstock too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you bring a gazebo?
We bring cover for the roaster; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
Is clearing up included?
Yes, we clear up after service.
Is our garden suitable?
Describe the space and the way in, and we will give you an honest answer.
Can you cater in Longstock?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
