The hog roast at our garden party was absolutely superb. The meat was juicy, the crackling was crispy, and the sides were spot on. A huge thank you for making the day so special.

We were over the moon with the service we were provided with for our works xmas do. Rick and Sophie were so lovely and ensured everything was ready to go for our 8PM dinner. The quality of the food was great, there was mixed feedback in regards to the veg maybe needing a few more minutes but nothing quarrel over. Over all, from start to finish, the Spitting Pig has been great.

We had Spitting Pig for our neighbourhood street party, and it was a huge success. The hog roast was cooked to perfection, with crispy crackling and tender meat. The coleslaw and potatoes were fresh and delicious, and the team was so friendly. Everyone’s still talking about it!

"The hog roast Spitting Pig provided for my 40th was outstanding. The coleslaw was fresh and crisp, the potatoes were spot on, and the apple sauce tied it all together. Everyone was delighted!"

Apologies for the delayed response, but I have been meaning to get back to you guys and leave a review because we were very impressed! Thank you so much for being flexible with timings on the day, and for your brilliant service to help our wedding go smoothly. I have written my official review below:
Myself and my husband were very impressed with the professionalism and friendliness of the Spitting Pig Team, from booking all the way through to our wedding day. They communicated to us very well and we felt we were in safe hands. We opted for the Hog Roast for our wedding day and we had so many glowing remarks about the food from our guests - they all enjoyed it and we too thought the quality and taste of the food was excellent! Thank you so much to the team for a great wedding breakfast meal!
Kind regards and God bless,
Marion

My 75th Birthday Event was a howling success. The Girls arrived in good time, set up without any fuss/problems, prepared the salad fresh on site and got everything read to start serving at the agreed time. All my guests enjoyed the Pig Roast, and many accolades have been received back. All finished, cleaned up, and gone without a trace. Girls could not have been more polite or helpful. Thank you.

Hi Sophie,
The event was a great success thank you.
All the feedback regarding the catering was excellent. The food was delicious. I am glad they were able to move inside.
They left the kitchen spotless, as if they were never there.
Plus we had some leftovers for the next day.
Many thanks!

The food was amazing! Cannot praise it enough! Rik and Connie (I think were their names!) were absolutely awesome and even found me to give me a slice of the best bit of the meat.

Sophie,
Sorry for the delay in replying.
It was absolutely amazing hog roast, the best I’ve ever had to be honest.
Everybody said the same and it was lovely the way you organised it , the homemade stuffing and the meat was fantastic.
In fact the people at the church said they’d love to use you for future events.
Thanks again for being part of a lovely day.
5 stars all the way !!
Thanks

Hi Sophie
Thank you for the Hog Roast on Tuesday as a landlady of the Boringdon Arms it is always me that has to prepare everything and make sure my guests are looked after and happy
you took all that away from me and allowed me to enjoy my own party.
From the moment you arrived you were a friendly and professional team even though the weather was against us. You set everything up very outside with ease,
Everyone praised the food and the presentation and a few people have said they would use you for their event.
So thanks once again for making my 70th a great success.
Regards
Sue

Hi Sophie and Rik,
Keiran and I cannot thank you enough for the fabulous effort you made for our wedding. Not only was the food fantastic, everything about the whole experience was amazing.
Rik and his team were so very lovely, setting up without any fuss even in the windy, showery Cornish weather, fitting in with our timings, giving us both crackling and ensuring that we both managed to eat an actual meal. Everyone said the food was amazing and we would definitely agree.
Thank you again
Sally
Hi Sophie,
I am so glad we decided to have the hog roast with your company!
The food was delicious, plenty of it and great quality. We didn't have to worry about doing anything, which was what we wanted, it was so stress free, amazing service.
All the clearing of plates and rubbish taken care of and lots of spare meat left for us to enjoy later.
We wouldn’t hesitate to use you again, thank you very much!
Kind regards,
Sally

Hi Sophie
The food was delicious and the service seamless.
Emma and her colleague turned up exactly on time. I showed them the location and they were really efficient and self-sufficient in both setting up and then packing up.
The marquee and food was presented well.
If I were organising another hog roast I wouldn’t hesitate to use you again.
Thank you. The hog roast definitely contributed to what was a really lovely evening.

I cannot thank your team enough.
People are still talking about the food ( especially the stuffing ) the meat was tender and delicious, the potatoes were so tasty and the salads were fabulous.
Rik and the staff were helpful and professional throughout.
The guys even packaged up the leftover food to help us as we delivered it to the local homeless shelter.
We will definitely use you again and we cannot give enough praise for your staff and the delicious food.

Hi Sophie,
I wanted to write to Rik as I didn’t have the chance to say good bye and to thank him for all his hard work on Sunday.
I could run out of positive adjectives to describe the whole experience from booking - all those months ago - to closing down after serving.
Rik is one of the most charming and accommodating men I’ve met, and all of my guests said so. They loved the setup, which was done without any fuss or tantrums (which can do often be the case), and the pork baps and accompaniments went down a treat; and it was amazing to be able to offer the veggie alternative which were also highly recommended. Absolutely delicious … and so much of it too. All in all, a lovely experience. 10/10 every time and highly recommended.
Thank you Sophie for all your help which is much appreciated.
Please pass on my thanks to Rik too. I’ll be back!
Best regards
Jacqui

Hi, Thanks so much for a great job yesterday. My birthday was great and it was such a treat having someone else cook for a change! Even better there was no washing up afterwards!
Really great experience all round.

Hi Sophie
Everything was perfect thank you.
From beginning to end of the booking you have been extremely helpful and supportive communication with you was easy and you always replied without delay. Thank you so much an asset to your employers.
Re: on the day of the wedding Rik and his team were amazing the comments on the quality of the food and service from the guests were very positive, amazing, delicious etc are how the food was described, everyone loved it. Rik and his partner were so focussed and attentive, they were even aware despite being over 200 people to serve that the bride and groom had not eaten nor had my husband and I therefore they ensured this was plated up for us before offering second helpings to guests. Astonishing really. Thank you Rik and the team.
I would wholeheartedly recommend “Spitting Pig “ to anyone considering holding any type of event , a much more relaxed atmosphere than a formal meal setting.
Kind regards,
Irene

We picked you guys to cater for our work event after we saw how many options you had and we were not disappointed.
The canapes we picked were just perfect during our drinks reception and everything flowed really nicely between those and the main service of food. The BBQ ribs and the mac and cheese were just phenomenal and everybody said how much they enjoyed the food. A real hit!
Thanks again,
Jane

What a fantastic Hog Roast and BBQ! Just stunning. I've had so many messages from our guests saying how much they enjoyed the food. Everything was incredibly well-presented and served.

Morning Sophie,
The day was a huge success and the hog roast went down a treat. Your team arrived as planned and getting through security was painless thanks to some pre-arrival security checks being completed at this end. While professional throughout they were clearly excited to be onboard a warship and as encouraged, made the most of getting around and seeing everything. Hopefully they got something back from the day too. If nothing else, probably a once in a lifetime experience.
A big thank you again, everything was perfect.
Kind regards,

Hi Penny,
We had a wonderful family party and Rick was amazing! He was so efficient, and we just left him to it to set up and get a fantastic meal prepared. We were all very happy with the food and excellent service. We would definitely recommend Spitting Pig Torbay - actually we have already passed on details to the property owners who are very interested in your company.
Thank you for making our day so special.

Hi Britt,
A massive thank you to the Spitting Pig Co. for the food supplied for our company’s Summer Party.
From the succulent sausages and BBQ ribs to the 18-hour slow cooked brisket, everything was delicious (even the vegetarian options 😊). Many of our staff have remarked on how great the food was – it went down a storm!
It wasn’t just the food; the service was excellent too! Two friendly faces, superb presentation, and an altogether good show!
We will most definitely be calling upon Spitting Pig Co. for our future events.

Dear Sophie,
Our corporate event on the 08.07.22 was a huge success and thanks go to the Spitting Pig, Rick our Chef and the lovely young lady who worked with him to look after us all. They arrived on time, set up without any hassle, were tidy, neat and efficient. The food and service was excellent, everyone really enjoyed themselves and it very successfully thanked everyone here at work for all their efforts. I heard many compliments through the lunch so thank you.
Please pass on my thanks to Rick and the team.
Kind Regards
Raymond
Hi Sophie
I am sorry I have not replied sooner, I had flagged you to reply. The event was a great success thank you. Everyone really enjoyed the pig roast and commented how nice the food was and how friendly Richard was. I did get the opportunity to talk to him also and as some of the guest had said, he was very friendly, professional and did a great job, couldnt have been better. We did have a laugh in the morning when the Groom walked into venue to find the farmer (venue owner) just finishing off the small amount of meat left over, he went very red faced.
Thank you for arranging everything in such short notice and I do hope you get some more business from some of the guests, I am sure you will, certainly deserve to. I hope I have the need again for your services in the future.
Best wishes
Sarah
Hi Britt,
Yes, happy to.
We thought everything was great. The chefs arrived in good time and the food was delicious. There was plenty to go round.
We wouldn't hesitate to book another hog roast with you.
Thanks

Hi Sophie
We have put feedback on FB but no problem repeating ….
Rik and his team delivered everything stated when we booked our celebration. On top of catering 86 Al Fresco meals Rik had travelled over 200 miles first. The local Spitting Pig chef in Cornwall was already committed to his own son’s wedding so Rik picked up the request and we are very grateful.
Our daughter got married in a beautiful garden setting and Rik’s team arrived, delivered the food and left leaving not a speck behind them which was particularly important to the venue owner.
Hoping Rik might like another trip across the border for our 40th wedding anniversary 😄🤞.
Highly recommend Rik and Spitting Pig in general as communications, paperwork etc were top drawer!
Hannah Jory
Hi Sophie
It was a great success and all our guests thoroughly enjoyed the hog roast experience and food.
The team were great. The communication between Rik and I was simple and efficient and the two ladies who cooked and served were brilliant and as said before the food was top notch spot on. We are still getting our way through the leftovers now.
I would definitely recommend the Spitting Pig co to anyone wanting something different at their events.
Thank you so much.
Kind regards
Sarah and Jason
We had Spitting Pig Torbay cater our wedding and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. The food was delicious – from the canapés to desserts – with many of our guests impressed at how tasty the food was. It was important for us to have the meal gluten free due to a few severe allergies and the chefs went above and beyond to make sure that everything was safe and still delicious. We seriously recommend this company to any couple looking for flexible but amazing food for their wedding!
Caroline
Will definitely recommend Spitting Pig! We booked the BBQ menu for my husband’s 50th birthday and the whole process has been a dream. Staff throughout were friendly, informative and efficient from booking to serving on the night and most importantly the food was delicious! The options were perfect and there was something for everyone.
Couldn’t have been better – thank you!
Melanie
Highly recommend – Spitting Pig who served our company team members something special, as a thank you for all the hard work they have been doing recently.
We had their Hog Roast in a soft white roll, with plenty of homemade apple sauce poured over, then topped with crackling, coleslaw & sauce of choice (I had a little chilli sauce) the meat texture was perfect & taste was incredible. The smell of the pork cooking along with the fresh salads was just incredible.
The team served us with lots of humour, warmth & professionalism.
Simon
Thank you to all the staff at Spitting Pig who aided from booking to serving our wedding catering. The antipasti boards were a clear crowd pleaser but nothing came close to the hog roast. The pork was succulent and the crackling was out of this world. The booking process was easy, staff were more than willing to accommodate our requirements and extremely friendly to everyone. Couldn’t have asked for anything more.
Tristin
Yes it was a success.
The food was amazing. Everybody made compliments on the food. We finished the rest the following day.
The poor guy needs a medal for having to cook outside in the horrendous weather we had. Not one complaint from him and all done single handedly. Friendly to our guests.
Timing wise it was perfect. Set up and take down was brilliant.
Clean and great value for money.
Would definitely recommend Spitting Pig Company to friends and family.
Thanks

Hi all.

Thank you Richard for making our post-wedding party such a success. The hog roast and all the accompaniments, including the vegan/vegetarian alternatives were delicious…everyone was very complimentary and eagerly queued for seconds! Your set up looked very smart and you were efficient in clearing up. Thank you so much.
Kind regards

Good morning!
We had an incredible time, very much helped by Rik! He was absolutely fantastic, and nothing was too much trouble.
He was great for the entirety of the planning process, always had time for questions, and happy to help out where he could.
The actual event was perfect too, everyone complimented the food, it was all delicious, including the vegetarian and vegan option. We also had a few who didn't eat pork and Rik was more than happy to help us with an alternative option for them.
Overall we were thrilled with our choice of caterer, please pass our thanks along to him.
Best wishes

Thank you for catering at such short notice, we had been let down by our original caterer and you were recommended when we asked around. The food was absolutely spot on, thanks again!

We engaged the services of Spitting Pig Torbay for our anniversary party. We live in the middle of nowhere and that wasn’t a problem for them at all; in fact, nothing was too much trouble and everything was professionally done and with a personal touch. The food itself was incredible. Well done and thank you so much!

Hi Spitting Pig,
Massive thank you to all involved on our special day, everything was perfect and couldn’t have gone any better. We had nothing but compliments from all the guests (even the fussy eaters!) The crackling was amazing, I’ve never had crackling that good before! Id have eaten a plate full if I could!
We are very very happy, please let us know if we can leave you feedback online!
Alan
The menu we had was fantastic, fit perfectly into our budget and felt great value for money as the service was impeccable!
Very happy and would definitely recommend!
Danny
Thank you to the whole team both in the office and the chef who came to do out event. Everyone was really easy to deal with, answered all my questions running up to the day so I felt assured. The food was outstanding! Hopefully will have another reason to throw a party again soon then you can come back!!
Rose
First of all, I want to say thank you to Rik who was amazing to deal with, really helpful and attentive on the day. His assistant was very polite with all the guests too (sorry I can’t remember her name). Timings were exact, food delicious and plenty of it, the portions were great. Everyone left very happy and very full.
Would love to have a reason for you to cater again for me soon 
Ryan
Hi Rik,
Just want to let you know how much we all loved the food last night, I haven’t tasted anything that good for a long time! Definitely been the talking point of the night with all our family, especially that crackling. Thank you also for packing up the leftovers for us, we gave some to the family to take a bit home which they loved.
Olivia and Joe
For a first time having a hog roast we were very impressed! We didn’t quite know what to expect at first but the service was fantastic, it tasted fantastic, overall just fantastic!!
The pork was so flavourful, I was worried that everyone might not like pork / want to eat pork but I remember most tried to make room for seconds haha. So it was a definite hit with the guests!
Thanks again, we loved it!
