About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.

Common questions in Temple Mills
Which station is closest to Temple Mills?
Stratford International station, in Temple Mills itself.
Can you do a hog roast in Mabley Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can we add a second roast?
Yes, spit-roast lamb can go alongside the pork.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
Do you do evening food?
Yes. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Distance from us
- Whether you want china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
What to tell us
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Any venue rules
- Where the event is

Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
