Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Light near the carving station after dark
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
- A way in for the roaster
For somewhere as remote as Dunsbury, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

FAQs for Dunsbury
Is Dunsbury too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cater after a service at St. Mary's Church?
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. Send us the address.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, with our staff serving.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.
Do you do evening food?
It is one of our most popular wedding bookings. Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling go down well after dancing.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
Evening food typically goes out an hour or two after the first dance.
Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.
The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In Dunsbury, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Numbers
- Crockery choices
- The serving time and how long we are on site
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What we need to know
To get the best quote, tell us:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The address or postcode
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Which meats and sides you’d like
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your wedding: fill in our quote form.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a cold evening buffet, hot carved pork beats sandwiches every time. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why book our hog roast in Dunsbury
- Fresh carving at the serving station
