Choosing a hog roast caterer

Party venues around Wickham

Wickham is about 6 miles north-west of Newbury, in West Berkshire. Wherever your party is in Wickham, we can bring the roaster, given a suitable outdoor cooking area. We bring hog roasts to all 155 towns and villages across West Berkshire, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater events right across the region, from Wickham to Reading (about 20 miles away).

A christening at Church of St Swithin followed by a hog roast at home is a simple, popular plan. Nearby historic houses include Benham Park (3.7 miles south-east). For most parties, a garden or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict catering rules. The North Wessex Downs National Landscape is within about 7 miles of Wickham, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.

Anywhere in RG20, we can bring the roaster to you. We can cater a party on streets such as Welford Road, Baydon Road and Mant Close or the roads around them, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the roaster. We also bring hog roasts to parties in Easton (1 mile east), Weston (1 mile north), Clapton (1 mile south-west), East Shefford (2 miles north) and Shefford Woodlands (2 miles north-west). We also serve nearby towns such as Newbury (6 miles south-east), Thatcham (8 miles east), Speenhamland (5 miles south-east), Hungerford (4 miles south-west), Lambourn (6 miles north-west) and Shaw (6 miles south-east).

Other landmarks nearby include Hamstead Marshall 3 (3.4 miles south-east). The countryside around Wickham includes Sole Common Pond.

Step by step

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. At midsummer, it is light in Wickham until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. Show us the garden or drive.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
  4. We serve when you are ready.
  5. We clear up so you do not have to.

How to prepare

  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

What a hog roast costs

The price comes down to:

  • Access to the cooking area
  • Plates or china
  • The number of people
  • The journey to the venue

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

What to tell us

Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:

  • The venue or postcode
  • Allergies we should know about
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Rough numbers

A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Use our quote form.

FAQs for Wickham

We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Swithin: can you cater?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Do you cater at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.

Do you cover Wickham?

Yes, Wickham is in our area. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.

What’s the price?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.

Do you bring plates?

We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

Is our garden suitable?

Often, yes, if there’s a level spot away from the house and trees, given access for the equipment. Send us a photo.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

Can you do gluten-free?

We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

Full catering or machine hire?

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

About the food

Roast pork

Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.

Rotisserie chicken

Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.

Looking after everyone

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Think about children’s portions
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans

Ensure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can bring everything through.

Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
