Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
Warn the neighbours: roasting takes hours and the smell travels, and they may ask for a roll.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
How our party hog roast works in Pyle
A party hog roast turns a garden party into an occasion. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you are ready, so you are not stuck in the kitchen. Typical bookings include anniversary parties and christenings and naming days, with rotisserie chicken, jacket potatoes and crackling.
Near Pyle, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Pyle
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Can you cater after a service at St Andrew's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: use our quote form.
Will a hog roast fit in our garden?
Describe the space and the way in, and we’ll tell you if it works.
What about the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: roasting takes hours. Some hosts invite them over for a roll.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to ordering takeaway, a hog roast is part of the party, not just the food. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why book with us
- Timed around your day
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Carved to order by a chef
Take a look at our prices page and the cost guide.
About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, served in a roll with salads.
Space, access and the venue
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
Pyle is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we serve

Full catering or machine hire?
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.

Planning a party in Pyle
Pyle is about 6 miles south of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. We cover parties in Pyle, along with the towns and villages around it. Pyle is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight we cover. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 22 miles away.
If the day starts at St Andrew's Church, the roast can be ready when everyone gets back. Near the coast, within about 6 miles, gardens can catch the wind, and we always plan for it.
This part of the Isle of Wight takes in PO38, and we can cater your party anywhere in it. That could mean a party in a garden on Pyle Shute, Westside Lane and Atherfield Road, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook. Neighbouring places where we cater parties include Chale Green (1 mile north-east), Atherfield Green (1 mile north-west), Little Atherfield (1 mile north-west), Shorwell (3 miles north-west) and Thorncross (3 miles north-west). Larger places within reach include Newport (6 miles north), Ryde (11 miles north-east), Cowes (10 miles north), Sandown (8 miles north-east), Shanklin (7 miles east) and Ventnor (5 miles east).

Other landmarks nearby include Blackgang Sawmill Museum (1.4 miles south-east) and Whitecroft Hospital (4.5 miles north). The countryside around Pyle includes Stenbury Down.
How it works
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Sunset in Pyle is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 4:00pm in December, we need light to carve.
- You tell us the date, your address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the date and the garden or drive, then send a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours ahead and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve when you are ready.
- We clear up and pack away.
How to prepare
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
