Party hog roast near Upton
Rolls are easy for party guests to eat standing up, so hog roast rolls are ideal. Alternatives cover anyone who does not eat pork. We serve crackling, rotisserie chicken and jacket potatoes, and we’re regularly asked to cater back-garden get-togethers and christenings and naming days.
In a small place like Upton, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Upton parties: what to know
Upton is about 1 mile south-west of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. Wherever your party is in Upton, we can bring the roaster, given a suitable outdoor cooking area. We bring hog roasts to 125 places across the Isle of Wight. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 17 miles away.
For party guests on the train, Smallbrook Junction station, about 1.1 miles east, is the nearest station. After a christening at a church like Church of St. Michael and All Angels, a hog roast in the garden is an easy way to feed family and friends. Near the coast, within about 2 miles, gardens can catch the wind, so we plan a sheltered spot.
Anywhere in PO33, we can bring the roaster to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Local streets include Stroud Wood Road, Upton Road and Carters Road; a party on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Other places close to Upton we cover include Haylands (1 mile north-east), Binstead (1 mile north), Ryde (1 mile north-east), Oakfield (1 mile north-east) and Elmfield (2 miles north-east). We also serve nearby towns such as Newport (5 miles west), Cowes (6 miles north-west), Sandown (4 miles south), Shanklin (6 miles south), Ventnor (8 miles south) and East Cowes (5 miles north-west). Some remote sites need extra planning, so contact us in good time.

Questions from Upton
Do you come out to small places like Upton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What’s the nearest station to Upton?
The closest is Smallbrook Junction station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will talk it through when we quote.
Is clearing up included?
Yes, we clear up after service.
Do children like hog roasts?
Generally, yes, so we get the amounts right.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Think about children’s portions
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Add a dietary question to the invite
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so it is cooking when guests arrive.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
How it works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. By late September, sunset in Upton is about 7:10pm; by December it’s about 4:00pm. Plan lights for the path and the food.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing usually contains gluten.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat
- Neighbours warned about the smell
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
For somewhere as remote as Upton, early notice helps us plan the trip.
