Langley Vale questions
Is Langley Vale close to London?
About 15 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
With sides, it’s a full wedding breakfast; for evening food, rolls are usually enough.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.

Near Langley Vale, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. You will know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

What else we do in Langley Vale
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
We serve and clear without fuss, and leave you to celebrate.
Some couples add lights around the serving area; tell your venue or marquee supplier.
Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Step by step
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Langley Vale, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A way in for the roaster
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- Permission for outside catering
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
