FAQs for Snow Hill
How far is Snow Hill from London?
Roughly 25 miles from the centre of London.
Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Can we offer lamb too?
Yes, spit-roast lamb can go alongside the pork.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
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 do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every wedding is different. What matters most:
- Access to the cooking area
- The number of people
- The date and time of year
- How long the roast and service take
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Allergies we should know about
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- The venue or postcode
- An estimate of numbers
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Note which guests don’t eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
Evening food typically goes out an hour or two after the first dance.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for any coeliac guests.
Where the roaster can go in Snow Hill
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- A serving area close to where guests eat
- A route to wheel equipment to the spot

How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Evening food at a Snow Hill wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.
