Our hog roast service in Amersham
Amersham has an old half and a newer half. The Old Town lies in the Misbourne valley, a long high street of timber-framed and brick buildings with the market hall at its centre. Up the hill, Amersham-on-the-Hill grew around the station, which serves both the Metropolitan line and Chiltern Railways and made the town a classic Metro-land commuter spot. All around are Chilterns fields, woods and villages.
We cater hog roasts, lamb roasts and BBQs throughout Amersham and the surrounding Chalfonts and villages. Everything is cooked and carved on site, with sides and sauces included, and our team staffs the counter from first serving to last clear-up.
We cater across Amersham as part of our hog roast catering in Buckinghamshire. For the full picture of how we work, see our our hog roast service page.
Where we cater in Amersham
Amersham's events have a strong countryside flavour. Barns and farm venues around Coleshill, Penn Street and Little Missenden host weddings and big birthday parties; the Chalfonts and Chesham Bois have large gardens for summer parties; and the town's schools, churches and sports clubs keep a lively calendar of fairs and fundraisers.
Getting to rural Chilterns venues can involve single-track lanes with passing places and sharp turns into farm gates. It's rarely a problem, but we'll want to know about low branches, steep drops or height restrictions on the way in.

BBQ catering in Amersham
Not every event suits a whole pig. For Amersham gatherings where people want choice — office lunches, club days, parties with lots of children — our BBQ catering is often the better fit: burgers, sausages and chicken cooked to order, with vegetarian and vegan options on their own grill space.

Events we cater in Amersham
Wedding hog roasts
Barn weddings in the hills around Amersham are a big part of our work here. Couples like a hog roast because it fits the rustic setting and feeds a crowd generously; adding a lamb roast gives a second main, and we serve a vegetarian main separately from the same counter.
Hog roast wedding cateringCorporate events
Amersham has smaller firms and professional practices rather than big corporate sites, so work events tend to be team summer parties at a club ground or partner's garden, or a festive lunch in December. We scale the service to fit.
Catering for company eventsBirthday & private parties
Families here book us for significant birthdays, anniversaries, confirmations and end-of-exams parties. With so many gardens backing onto open fields, outdoor parties are easy to host, and the hog roast becomes the natural gathering point.
Hog roasts for birthday parties · Catering for parties at homeWhat we cook
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
Lamb works as the only roast or alongside pork. We carve it at the counter and serve it with mint sauce, herby salads and breads — a popular choice for summer weddings.
Lamb roast cateringBBQ 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
The sides make the meal. Choose from homemade coleslaw, mixed leaf salad, tomato and red onion salad, potato salad and pasta salad, plus fries, sweet potato fries or buttered new potatoes cooked on site. Fresh rolls, breads and a proper sauce table come as standard.
Vegetarian, vegan & dietary options
Most Amersham 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 Amersham
Can you get to a barn venue down a narrow Chilterns lane near Amersham?
Almost always. Tell us the venue's postcode and any access notes — single-track sections, low bridges, tight gateways — and we'll plan the right vehicle and arrival time.
Do you also cover the Chalfonts and Little Chalfont?
Yes, along with Chesham Bois, Coleshill, the Missendens and the surrounding villages.
Do you only do hog roasts, or can we have a BBQ in Amersham?
Both, and lamb too. Plenty of Amersham events have a BBQ on its own or alongside the hog roast. Have a look at the BBQ menu for ideas.
