About our wedding hog roast in Windsor
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, on china if you’d like. We serve carved roast pork, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes, and we’re frequently booked for weddings in a marquee and anniversary vow renewals.
Couples in Windsor often keep it personal, with a marquee or a local hall. Carved roast pork suits that kind of day. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.

What affects the price in Windsor
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Whether you want china
- Site access
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What we need to know
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- The venue or postcode
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the wedding is and roughly how many. A photo of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.
Windsor questions
Which station is closest to Windsor?
Windsor & Eton Central station, about 1 mile north-east of the centre.
How far is Windsor from London?
Roughly 23 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?
The roaster stays outdoors on level ground.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Will guests be full?
With sides, it is a full wedding breakfast; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
Do you serve the food?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.

Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children typically like it too.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Give your coordinator the final menu
We serve and clear without fuss, so the party carries on around us.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, as an extra.
Planning the cooking spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Flat ground outside the reception for the roaster
- Power for lights in the evening
- A serving area close to where guests eat
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
What we serve
- Spit-roast lamb
- Hog roast rolls
- Salads
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Rotisserie chicken
- Roast or jacket potatoes
- Crackling
- New potatoes
- Vegan option (Ve)
How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. At a December wedding in Windsor, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
- Our staff clear the serving area and we leave quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
