Good food.For everybody.

One event. One table.

Different appetites do not need different parties.

Some guests want crackling. Some do not eat meat. Some need a bit more care around ingredients. The useful answer is a menu that can flex without turning the booking into six separate conversations.

01

Choose the main mix

Hog roast, plant-based feast, or both together. The builder keeps serving capacity visible as quantities change.

02

Add the good bits

Salads, sides and accompaniments make the table feel generous rather than merely mathematically sufficient.

03

Tell us what matters

Dietary needs and practical event details stay attached to the same event instead of disappearing into an email thread.

The main event

Two proper choices. Equal billing.

The indicative prices below are the same ones used by Build Your Event. Nothing is hidden in a mystery package.

Approx. 50 servings per pig

Whole hog roast

Big, generous, outdoor-event food.

Built for the centre of a crowd: carved pork, crackling and the sort of serving theatre that makes the food part of the day rather than just a refuelling stop.

£475per pig · approx. 50 servings
  • Works alone or as part of a mixed menu
  • Choose up to 4 pigs in Build Your Event
  • Capacity stays visible against guest numbers
Vegetarian / vegan-friendly

Stuffed peppers + falafel feast

Colourful food in its own right.

This is not the sad tray in the corner. Stuffed peppers, falafel and generous sides are designed to sit confidently beside the hog roast or carry the whole event themselves.

£14per portion · minimum 20 when selected
  • Mix exact portion numbers with hog servings
  • Useful for genuinely mixed groups
  • Plant-based portions count fully towards guest capacity

Make the table look like a feast

Salads, sides and all the useful extras.

These examples show how sides and accompaniments can round out the main menu. They are intentionally shown without individual prices in this demonstrator.

Herby new potatoes

Warm or room-temperature, generous and easy to share across a mixed table.

Crunchy slaw

Sharp, colourful crunch alongside rich roast pork, falafel or both.

Big green salad

Leaves, herbs and seasonal bits rather than an apologetic garnish.

Sauces + accompaniments

The bits people remember when they go back for seconds.

Mixed menus

“Some meat, some plant-based” is a normal booking.

Build Your Event adds hog capacity and plant-based portions together. That keeps the customer’s choices straightforward and gives the business a much clearer production quantity.

A few ways it can add up

Example event menus.

These examples use the same indicative main-food prices shown in Build Your Event. They are illustrations, not fixed packages or promises of availability.

80 guests

The mixed crowd

Good when one central roast still makes sense but a substantial part of the table wants plant-based food.

120 guests

The balanced big day

A genuinely mixed menu where the plant-based side of the event is every bit as significant as the roast.

150 guests

The bigger feast

More roast capacity with a proper 50-portion plant-based offer rather than a token alternative.

Made for proper mixed tables.

Dietary flexibility

Useful information, not a tiny notes box at the end.

Dietary requirements stay with the event details, so they can be checked alongside the menu, guest count and booking instead of disappearing into an email thread.
