Here’s what just some of our clients say and why we are everyone’s favourite!

 We all know that testimonials are easy to make up, but these are genuine. We would be happy to supply contact details for any of them should serious enquirers wish.

 

“We were delighted with the hog roast provided, and with James’ and Ross’ service, which was friendly, helpful and professional. The food was very tasty and supplied in sufficient quantities, and your team were proactive in suggesting that we offer slightly larger portions due to the slightly smaller number of people who attended the event. We’re hugely grateful to you for sorting it all out for us at such short notice.”

Peter, Leicestershire, 2019

“I just wanted to email to thank you for providing the mini hog roast for my husbands surprise birthday party on Saturday at Spondon Village Hall.

Super job, I would highly recommend and would use your services again in the future.”

I have to say that from the first phone call of enquiry to enjoying the food on the day the whole process was extremely easy with you at the helm. Despite our ever changing requests your confident and organised planning took all the worry from our shoulders. James and Steph were superb – all ready for us as we arrived in from the Church and the table presentation was really impressive. Their professional service ensured all our guests were well looked after, and, with their well planned organisation,service continued with hot food for second – and possible third helpings for a few!

“The party was a success despite the rain later on. Many people commented on the Mini Hog Roast, saying it was an excellent idea and very well done. The pork was lovely and I spent a lot of yesterday currying the remains for the freezer. James was great. He was smart, punctual and friendly with our guests. I had forgotten to tell you that it was fancy dress, so he did very well serving Oompalumpas, Romans,Monks and pirates. All very bizarre, but fun. Thank you once again, I was very impressed and would gladly recommend your company.”

Thank you for all your help.”

Gavin and Tiffany, Lincolnshire, 2014

“Dear Richard and James,

Having deciding to have a ‘do’ for my birthday on 6^th July, 2014, I googled Ox roast and up sprung your company. All you had to offer sounded just what we were looking for, and without any recommendation we placed an order for a Baron of Beef, salads and puds to feed around 150 guests. From our first meeting with you we felt confident that you knew what we were expecting.  Being farmers, and having many farming friends who know their beef attending the do, the beef had to be good and plenty of it. 

All I can say is that it was fantastic.  You’d cooked it perfectly, there was more than enough, and many of our guests have come back to us saying it was ‘The best beef they’d ever eaten!’  Some went up three times for another plate full! We’d hoped it would be good but to get comments like that was far more than we’d expected, and we can only say a huge thank you to both you and your supplier.  You hit the nail on the head!

All that you supplied including the salads and yummy puddings, your service and your team were excellent and we cannot recommend the professional The Hog and Ox Roast Company enough. So thank you so very, very much for making our event so successful – it means an awful lot to us.”

Rose and Robert Cookes, Solihull, West Midlands, 2014 – letter reproduced here in its entirety

“We had a great time on Saturday and loved the food and thought the service you provided was excellent. The BBQ beef and pork both got rave reviews from everybody and we were really glad to have the left overs. Glad we chose those two options. We were really impressed with the whole thing, so thank you very much.”

Thank you Richard.  Our guests were very impressed with the way the hog was presented, prepared in front of their eyes, and served with such style.  The white jackets and heated serving dishes added to the theatre.  Personally, I was pleased with the way you set up and cleared with a minimum of fuss, so that Caroline and I could focus on our guests.
