If you’ve ever been responsible for organising a corporate event, you’ll know there’s one thing you really can’t afford to mess up: the food.
You can have the best venue, a brilliant guest list and a carefully planned schedule – but if the catering falls flat, that’s often the one thing people remember. Good food keeps everyone happy, gives people a reason to mingle and generally keeps the energy of the event ticking along nicely.
That’s exactly why so many businesses choose to work with Hog Roast Newtonabbey.
With more than thirty years of experience in the catering world, we understand that corporate events aren’t just another booking in the diary – they’re an opportunity to impress clients, reward hardworking staff, or connect with new customers. As business owners ourselves Hog Roast Newtonabbey knows how important it is to make every detail count – especially when you’re investing time and money into creating a memorable experience.
While hog roasts are what we’re famous for, they’re far from the only thing we have to offer. Our menus cover all sorts of options and if nothing quite fits what you have in mind, we’re always happy to put together something completely bespoke.
That’s exactly what happened recently when one of our corporate clients asked us to cater a gathering for around 70 guests. Instead of going down the traditional route, our catering manager Jamie decided to mix things up a bit and create a Tex-Mex inspired feast.
The star of the menu? Loaded fries – and plenty of them.
Guests were treated to crispy fries piled high with rich beef chilli, finished with sour cream, guacamole and a generous sprinkle of grated cheese. It was the kind of food that’s comforting, satisfying and just a little bit indulgent – perfect for a relaxed corporate event.
Of course, Hog Roast Newtonabbey made sure everyone was catered for. Guests who didn’t eat meat were served their own version of the dish, topped with smoky bean chilli, vegan cheese and guacamole. No one was left out, and the feedback was fantastic.
To keep things simple and easy for guests, everything was served in disposable boxes with bamboo cutlery. That meant people could wander around, chat and enjoy the event without needing to sit down for a formal meal.
The result? Happy guests, empty boxes and a client who was thrilled with how it all turned out.
So if you’ve got a corporate event coming up, take it from us – don’t leave the food to chance. Let Hog Roast Newtonabbey handle it.
