About our party hog roast in West Meon
Birthdays, christenings and summer parties in West Meon suit a hog roast: hearty food that feeds everyone at once. We serve and tidy up. Typical bookings include reunions and ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries, with coleslaw, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce.
In a small place like West Meon, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
A hog roast or other catering?
Instead of booking a restaurant, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

- Choices for people who do not eat pork

Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
