A hog roast near Waterbeach
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Party hog roast in Waterbeach, slow-roasted on site
A party hog roast turns a garden party into an occasion. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you are ready, so you can enjoy your own party. For big birthday parties and close and cul-de-sac parties, we’ll put together a menu of apple sauce, crackling and jacket potatoes and more.
Near Waterbeach, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

What a hog roast costs
Here’s what affects the price:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Time on site
- Distance from us
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- The venue or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Which meats and sides you’d like
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Nearby historic houses include Goodwood House (0.5 miles north-west) and West Dean House (3.3 miles north-west).

Questions from Waterbeach
Which station is closest to Waterbeach?
Chichester station, about 3.2 miles south-west of the centre.
Can you cater after a service at The Priory Church of St Mary and St Blaize?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Who serves?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What’s included?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Is our garden suitable?
Often, yes, if there’s a level spot away from the house and trees, given access for the equipment. A picture helps.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Allergies and dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Let us know roughly how many children
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so it’s cooking when guests arrive.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Autumn parties in Waterbeach get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 4:00pm by December. Plan lights for the path and the food.
- Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We leave the garden tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Give us a contact number for the day
