How our wedding hog roast works in Arundel

We serve rotisserie chicken, crackling and salads, and typical bookings are for vow renewals and blessings and intimate weddings.

For a smaller place like Arundel, a garden or farm wedding is often the dream. We need level ground, cover and a way in. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Put a dietary question on the invitation
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed

We serve and clear without fuss, and leave you to celebrate.

Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.

Prices and what affects them

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • The serving time and how long we are on site
  • The date and time of year
  • Numbers
  • Plates or china

Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

What to tell us

When you enquire, please mention:

  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • The address or postcode
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Rough numbers

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: use our quote form.

Is a hog roast right for your wedding?

Compared with a cold evening buffet, hot carved pork beats sandwiches every time. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Why book with us

  • Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests
  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
  • A clear quote with everything listed

Take a look at our prices page and the cost guide.

What happens on the day

People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it. At a December wedding in Arundel, it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.

  1. Tell us whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
  2. We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
  3. The venue and we agree where the roaster goes.
  4. We set up and roast for hours.
  5. We carve and serve, then clear away.

Before we arrive

  • Name a contact for the day
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
  • Have a level outdoor spot ready

How to get a price

Send us the date, the address or BN18 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.

Should I cook it myself?

For event organisers in Arundel

Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

About the food

  • Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
