Party hog roast in Regents Park, slow-roasted on site
If you’d rather cook yourself, DIY machine hire is an option. Most people choose the catered option, so they can enjoy the party. Typical bookings include street parties and big family get-togethers, with jacket potatoes, crackling and rotisserie chicken.
In a place like Regents Park, a party at home is normally the easiest option. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we will bring everything else. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Should I cook it myself?
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.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
The process
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. For an evening party in Regents Park, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it is around 7:10pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.
- Send us your party date, address, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve when you’re ready.
- We pack away and leave the garden tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Hosting a hog roast party in Regents Park
Regents Park is about 2 miles west of Southampton, in Southampton. Planning a hog roast for your party in Regents Park? We cover the whole area. We cover all 40 towns and villages across Southampton, from the larger towns to small villages.
Among the historic houses close to Regents Park are Southampton Tudor House and Garden (2 miles south-east) and Medieval Merchant's House (2.1 miles south-east). If you are hiring a historic venue for a big birthday, check its rules on outside caterers first. Parks such as St James' Park usually need permission from the council or landowner for any cooking, so check first. Regents Park is within about 7 miles of the New Forest National Park, so a garden party here comes with a lovely backdrop. Near the coast, within about 3 miles, gardens can catch the wind, so we plan a sheltered spot.
This part of Southampton takes in SO15, SO16 and SO17, and we can cater your party anywhere in it. We can cater a party on streets such as May Road, Mill Road and York Road or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. Regents Park is on the A33 and A3057, so it’s easy for us to reach with the equipment.

Questions from Regents Park
We’re gathering after a service at Church of the Holy Trinity: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will fit around changes.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Is our garden suitable?
Frequently, yes, if there is a level spot away from the house and trees, and a way to wheel the equipment through. Send us a photo.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Instead of booking a restaurant, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why us?
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Planned to your running order
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
Take a look at our pricing or the cost guide.
