Wedding hog roast in Nag's Head, carved to order

For a relaxed wedding in Nag's Head, a hog roast hits the right note: generous, hearty food carved in front of your guests. Our staff serve and clear, so the day runs smoothly. Popular choices include salads, carved roast pork and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for post-wedding gatherings and evening food after the first dance.

Couples in Nag's Head frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, so check with the venue early. Timings are planned around your wedding, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Before you choose a spot

Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:

  • Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
  • Space well clear of tents and trees
  • A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn

As a London location, Nag's Head is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

About the food

Crackling

Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:

  • Put a dietary question on the invitation
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Give your coordinator the final menu
  • If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately

We’re on site for much of the day, out of the way, by the cooking area.

Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Numbers
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Travel to Nag's Head

Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.

Getting an accurate quote

When you contact us, please mention:

  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • The address or postcode

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: fill in our quote form.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Nag's Head

What if our house in Nag's Head has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Which station is closest to Nag's Head?

The closest is Drayton Park station, roughly 0.6 miles away.

Do we need to provide electricity?

The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Can you work around our timings?

Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll fit around changes.

Do you cover Nag's Head?

We do. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.

Where does the hog roast go?

A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.

Can we offer lamb too?

Lamb and chicken are both available as a second option.

What’s the price?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.

How it works

A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. Golden-hour photos in Nag's Head at midsummer come around 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
  3. We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
  4. We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
  5. Our staff clear the serving area and we leave quietly.

Getting ready for the day

  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Name a contact for the day
  • Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Getting a price
