Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

FAQs for Taplow
Is Taplow too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Could you cook in Braywick Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
Will guests be full?
We will plan quantities from your numbers, and the quote lists everything.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Your venue decides: rules vary. We’ll sort the details with them.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
If your venue does its own catering, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. Some venues charge a fee. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book with us
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Sides to make it a full meal
