FAQs for Shipton Green
Which station is closest to Shipton Green?
The closest is Bosham station, roughly 3.6 miles away.
We are gathering after a service at St Nicholas' Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
The roaster has its own cover; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We’ll explain the details with your quote.

Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
How we price a hog roast for your party
Things that change the price:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Plates or china
- Site access
- Travel to Shipton Green
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Your menu choices
- Rough numbers
- Allergies we should know about
Send us the date, the address or PO20 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Send us your details through our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
We set up in the agreed spot, so the party carries on around us.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
