How our party hog roast works in Tackley
Throwing a party is hard work. A hog roast takes the food off your list: we cook, carve and serve. Popular choices include jacket potatoes, a vegan burger or sausage and rotisserie chicken, and we are frequently booked for big family get-togethers and neighbourhood parties.
In a small place like Tackley, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish.

How we price a hog roast for your party
Things that change the price:
- Site access

- Distance from us
- Season and day of the week
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

When you enquire, please mention:
- The address or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Allergies we should know about
- Roughly how many people
If you are comparing hog roast caterers for Tackley, ask each one exactly what’s included. We spell it out in ours. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
How the day works
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. At midsummer, it’s light in Tackley until about 9:30pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you’re ready.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Tackley
Do you come out to small places like Tackley?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Nicholas?
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.

Most children like pork in a soft roll, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.

The roaster has its own cover; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
