What else we do in Seaview
Seaview questions
Is Seaview close to London?
About 70 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
We are gathering after a service at St. Peter's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
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.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
What about the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: roasting takes hours. They may want a roll.
Will a hog roast fit in our garden?
Frequently, yes, if there is a level spot away from the house and trees, given access for the equipment. A picture helps.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Think about children’s portions
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
We set up in the agreed spot, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.
What affects the price in Seaview
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Menu choices and extras
- Plates or china
- The date and time of year
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Details that help
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- A picture of the cooking area
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Roughly how many people
- Any dietary needs or allergies

Hosting a hog roast party in Seaview
Seaview is about 2 miles east of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. We cater parties of every size in Seaview. We cater all 125 towns and villages across the Isle of Wight. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 18 miles away.
Guests arriving by train should know that the closest railway station is Smallbrook Junction station, roughly 2 miles west of the centre. Historic houses near Seaview include Nunwell House (3.3 miles south-west) and Morton Manor (3.6 miles south-west). For most parties, a garden or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict catering rules. Near the coast, within about 3 miles, gardens can catch the wind, so we plan a sheltered spot.
For parties in PO34, we just need to know where the roaster can cook. That could mean a party in a garden on High Street, Madeira Road and Church Street or the roads around them, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook. Close by, we cover parties in Nettlestone (1 mile south), Spring Vale (1 mile north-west), Pondwell (1 mile west), Puckpool (1 mile west) and Appley (2 miles west). Within a short drive, we also cover Newport (8 miles west), Cowes (9 miles west), Sandown (5 miles south-west), Shanklin (7 miles south-west), Ventnor (10 miles south-west) and East Cowes (8 miles west). For a party at a remote spot, let us know early and we’ll plan the trip.
A little further out are Southsea Castle (4.1 miles north) and Gosport War Memorial Hospital (5.3 miles north). The countryside around Seaview includes Brading Down and Alan Hersey Nature Reserve.
- Pubs nearby include The Boat House (0.8 miles north-west)
What happens on the day
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. Sunset in Seaview is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is generally in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 4:00pm, need lights by the roaster.
- 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.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- We carve and serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
