Shabbington: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Shabbington?
The closest is Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, roughly 4.1 miles away.
Is Shabbington close to London?
About 44 miles from central London, and well within our area.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Will guests be full?
We’ll plan quantities from your numbers, and the quote lists everything.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
Running late? A slow roast can wait a little. Just keep us informed.
Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Menu choices and extras
- The number of people
- Crockery choices
- The date and time of year
The main driver is numbers: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The address or postcode
- What the outdoor space is like
- Which meats and sides you’d like
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your wedding: fill in our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
Why choose a hog roast in Shabbington?
Next to a formal three-course meal, a hog roast wedding breakfast is relaxed and generally costs less per head. It still feels like a feast. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
