How our wedding hog roast works in Milton Common
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat. We are often asked to cater late-night wedding food and home weddings, serving salads, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers.
Near Milton Common, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Let us know about access and ground. Our staff serve and clear, so you are not left handing out rolls.

Common questions in Milton Common
How far is Milton Common from London?
Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Milton Common?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?

Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
With sides, it is a full wedding breakfast; for evening food, rolls are generally enough.

As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Can we add a second roast?
Lamb and chicken are both available as a second option.

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
