How our party hog roast works in Quarley
A hog roast works for street parties as well, once the road closure or permission is in place. Whether it’s leaving and retirement do’s and anniversary parties, we’ll put together a menu of coleslaw, jacket potatoes and rotisserie chicken and more.
Near Quarley, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish.
Step by step
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can enjoy your party. In Quarley, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 4:00pm, need lights by the roaster.

What affects the price in Quarley
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Plates or china
- Numbers
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The journey to the venue
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
