Wedding hog roast in Postcombe
FAQs for Postcombe
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Is Postcombe too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.
