Our hog roast service in Maidenhead
Brunel's flat brick railway bridge spans the Thames at Maidenhead, a few hundred yards from the road bridge and the towpath towards Boulter's Lock. The town grew up as a river crossing and a Victorian day-trip spot, and today it's a commuter town with a direct Elizabeth line service into London and quick links to the M4 and the A404(M) towards Marlow.
The river still sets the tone in summer, and we cater many riverside parties here, alongside office socials in the town centre and business parks and marquee weddings in the villages. Our hog roasts and BBQs are cooked on site and carved to order, with every side, sauce and serving staff included.
We cater across Maidenhead as part of our hog roast catering in Berkshire. For the full picture of how we work, see our full-service hog roasts page.
Where we cater in Maidenhead
North of the town, Cookham and Cookham Dean are all riverside gardens, commons and village cricket; south of it, Bray, Holyport and White Waltham have greens, larger properties and open farmland. Pinkneys Green and Maidenhead Thicket add woodland and National Trust common land to the west. Within the town, family homes in Furze Platt, Cox Green and Boyne Hill host many of our birthday and summer parties.
River gardens are lovely but can be awkward: some have no vehicle access beyond the house, and the Thames floodplain means low-lying lawns can stay wet after a rainy spell. Tell us about the ground and the route from the road and we'll plan where the roast goes.

Events we cater in Maidenhead
Wedding hog roasts
Maidenhead weddings are often by the water or in a marquee on a village green or field nearby. A hog roast carved beside the river feels right for a summer celebration, and we can pair it with a lamb or a BBQ for a longer evening guest list.
Catering for weddingsCorporate events
With fast trains to London and the M4 on the doorstep, Maidenhead has a strong base of office employers. They tend to want tidy, well-timed service for summer parties and client events, often at a hired riverside club rather than on site. We handle the planning and the paperwork.
Corporate BBQ cateringBirthday & private parties
Summer is peak season. Garden parties, riverside birthdays and neighbourhood get-togethers around Cookham and Bray fill our Maidenhead weekends from late spring onwards, and a hog roast Maidenhead booking often turns into a long lazy afternoon by the water.

Pork hog roast
Nothing is carved in advance and left to sit. The pig goes on hours before service, fills the air with the smell of roasting pork, and is carved fresh for every guest with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce.
View our hog roast menuLamb roast
A whole lamb on the spit gives the same sense of occasion as a hog roast with a lighter, herby feel. Serve it in flatbreads with minted yoghurt, or plated with potatoes and gravy.
A whole lamb roastBBQ options
Burgers, sausages and chicken for the meat-eaters, with halloumi, vegetable skewers and plant-based options cooked separately for everyone else.
BBQ packagesSides & salads
A roast without good sides is just meat in a bun. We make coleslaw and salads fresh, cook fries and sweet potato fries on site, and can add new potatoes, corn on the cob or a Greek-style salad depending on the season and the crowd.
Vegetarian, vegan & dietary options
Most Maidenhead events have guests who don't eat pork, and many have vegetarians, vegans and people with allergies. We cook meat-free dishes separately when asked, label every dish, and can build a pork-free menu around lamb or the BBQ. Our allergen information explains what we can and can't guarantee.

Hog roast FAQs for Maidenhead
Our garden in Maidenhead backs onto the Thames and can be damp. Is that a problem?
Not usually. We set the roast up on the firmest, highest ground available — often a patio or drive — and serve from a counter near your guests. If the lawn is waterlogged we'll bring boards or adjust the layout.
Do you cover Cookham, Bray and Holyport?
Yes, and the wider area including Cookham Dean, Pinkneys Green, White Waltham, Waltham St Lawrence and Littlewick Green.
Can you cater a client event at a riverside club near Maidenhead?
Yes. Clubs often have their own rules on suppliers, gas and where cooking can happen, so share those with us and we'll confirm everything before you book.
Can guests with dietary requirements be catered for?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan mains are cooked separately on request and labelled, and allergen information is available for every dish. See our allergen and dietary information.
