These days, Christmas is so much more than a one-day wonder. From the 1st of December onwards, it’s a whirlwind of festive parties, last-minute meet-ups with friends, battles through jungles of tinsel in every shop and a gift list that never seems to shrink. All with a steady supply of cheeky chocolates to keep us going, obviously. But while most people are only just starting to find their festive spirit, the Christmas countdown at Hog Roast Formby starts a whole lot sooner.
December is our busiest month of the year, so we like to get organised early. How early, you ask? Well, we’ve been taking Christmas bookings since June… So, yeah. While we’re not quite ready to put the decorations up that early (our neighbours would have questions), when it comes to securing dates for festive catering, we don’t hang about.
And there’s a good reason for that. Our December calendar fills up quickly with back-to-back events, and demand for our seasonal catering is always sky-high. We often reach a point where we have to turn people away because we’re fully booked, and honestly, that’s one of the hardest parts of the job – we know how much a great spread adds to a Christmas celebration, so saying no never feels good.
Which is why, if you’ve got something special planned this December, now is the time to get in touch. Family get-together? Office party? School disco? A festive bash with friends? Whatever you’re organising, Hog Roast Formby would love to help make it one to remember.
Our Festive Menu is packed with seasonal favourites, so it’s a solid choice if you want the full Christmas dinner experience without lifting a finger. But if you’d prefer to shake things up, our hog roasts and BBQ menus offer plenty of choice for anyone who fancies something a little different this year. After all, nobody ever said Christmas food had to involve a sprout.
Just don’t leave it until December to start thinking about December. Get in touch with Hog Roast Formby today to chat through your plans, explore the menus and see how we can take care of your festive catering. The most wonderful time of the year is also one of the busiest, and a little forward planning now could save you a whole lot of disappointment later on.
Trust us, future you will be very grateful. Future you will be sitting down with a plate of something delicious while everybody else is still frantically ringing around for a caterer.
