Have you ever noticed that most weddings tend to follow the same dinner service arrangement, usually featuring a set three-course sit-down menu, with little variation from one celebration to the next? Well, we’re here to tell you something: just because it’s tradition doesn’t mean you have to follow it.

At Hog Roast Penrith, we’re firm believers in throwing out the wedding rulebook and encouraging couples to do things their own way – because that’s how all of the best celebrations begin. So, if you’re looking for a menu that lives up to the occasion, we’ve got just the thing.
Meet our Alfresco Menu. It suits weddings of every size, style and budget, and it’s a lovely change from the usual routine. And whether you fancy tying the knot in a rustic barn, on the side of a mountain or in a swish function hall, Hog Roast Penrith can bring this menu to any location. Seriously, try us!
Wondering what makes the Alfresco Menu such a winner? Well, for starters, it’s a feast that gets people talking. Literally. Rather than having everyone wait patiently for their next course to arrive, guests can dive straight into a gorgeous grazing table loaded with Italian meats, cheeses, artisan breads, olives, fresh fruit and plenty of other tasty treats. Strangers become friends over the last bit of mozzarella, and you get a bit of breathing room too. Slip off for photos, or just steal ten quiet minutes with your other half. Nobody will even notice you’ve gone – they’ll be far too busy eating!

Then, for the main, your guests will tuck into our signature slow-roasted hog, cooked to perfection over several hours and served with crispy crackling, stuffing, applesauce and a selection of delicious sides. Add your choice of potato dish and two dreamy desserts to finish things off, and you’ve got a proper feast that’s generous, satisfying and made for bringing people together. Oh, and don’t worry – we’ll also include meat-free options for vegetarian and vegan guests, helping everyone feel part of the celebrations.
So, if you’re ready to swap the traditional wedding breakfast for something with a little more personality, get in touch with Hog Roast Penrith today and ask about our Alfresco Menu – we can’t wait to hear from you!
