Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator

Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors are:
- The date and time of year
- Whether you want china
- Menu choices and extras
- Access to the cooking area
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
What to tell us
To get the best quote, send us:
- The venue or postcode
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Your date and serving time
- Any venue rules
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your wedding: use our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Oakgrove
Could you cook in Campbell Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.
Is Oakgrove close to London?
Roughly 46 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.

Who serves?
You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
Where the roaster can go in Oakgrove
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
