Questions from Clanfield
Is Clanfield 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.
How far is Clanfield from London?
Roughly 66 miles from the centre of London.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
What if things run late?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
It is one of our most popular wedding bookings. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.
Wedding hog roast near Clanfield
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, with china available on request. For evening food after the first dance and the main wedding meal, we can cook salads, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken and more.
Rural weddings around Clanfield have a magic of their own, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Planning for dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
Our staff serve and clear quietly, and leave you to celebrate.
Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.
What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Distance from us
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How long the roast and service take
- Whether you want china
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Where the event is

- Which meats and sides you’d like

The menu, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, which keeps it hot and moist.
A hog roast or other catering?
A common mix is a plated meal followed by an evening hog roast; others have the hog roast as the main event. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What you get with us
- Timed around your day
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Sides to make it a full meal

Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

Planning help
Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will 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 check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- Space well clear of tents and trees
- Power for lights in the evening
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
