Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Think about children’s portions
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
We get there early to start the roast, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- The number of people
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The journey to the venue
- The date and time of year
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Roughly how many people
- Allergies we should know about
- Your date and serving time
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.
Totland questions
Can you cater after a service at Christ Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you roast near the sea around Totland?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Do you come to Totland?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Totland and the Isle of Wight. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Will you clear up afterwards?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Generally, yes, so we get the amounts right.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
What the cooking area needs
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- Space for our vehicle near the drive
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
Totland is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
