The process
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. At midsummer, it is light in West Stoke until about 9:20pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Send a picture of where the roaster could go.
- We check the space and quote.
- We cook for hours on site.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We clear up so you don’t have to.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in West Stoke
Is West Stoke close to London?
Roughly 54 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is West Stoke too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Do you bring a gazebo?
Not for the cooking, but a gazebo or indoor space for guests is a good backup.
Should we warn the neighbours?
Let them know in advance.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your party for a quote.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
For event organisers in West Stoke
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
A hog roast or other catering?
Instead of booking a restaurant, a hog roast at home lets everyone relax in the garden. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
