Wedding hog roast near Bay View
After hours of dancing, guests are hungry. Hog roast rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling do exactly that. On the menu are new potatoes, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and we’re frequently booked for rustic barn receptions and garden weddings at home.
A wedding in a small place like Bay View often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
We’ll liaise with your venue coordinator, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, quoted separately.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Bay View
Do you come out to small places like Bay View?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Bay View close to London?
Roughly 43 miles from the centre of London.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, and our staff serve your guests.

We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. Serving inside is fine where allowed.

How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. For a summer wedding in Bay View, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, which means an evening hog roast is normally served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every wedding is different. The main factors are:
- Plates or china
- Access to the cooking area
- The number of people
- Distance from us
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Details that help
To check the date and the space, we will need:
- Your menu choices
- The date and time of the event
- Dietary requirements
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
If your venue does its own catering, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. Some venues charge a fee. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What you get with us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Our staff serve and clear
- Timed around your day
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
