A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you’re ready, so you can enjoy your own party.

Common questions in The City
Is The City too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Which station is closest to The City?
Saunderton station, about 1.8 miles north-east of the centre.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A photo helps.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do you cover The City?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including The City and Buckinghamshire. Send us the address for a quote.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours, and they may ask for a roll.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
