Dads are notoriously difficult to buy for. Not because they’re fussy, but because most of them genuinely don’t want – or need – anything. They’ll smile politely at the novelty mug, they’ll wear the socks and they’ll probably have the “World’s Best Dad” card on display for a respectable amount of time. But are any of these things truly memorable? Not quite.
Here’s what actually sticks: a proper get-together. The whole family in one place, nobody rushing off anywhere, good food on the table and nowhere else any of you would rather be. That’s the kind of Father’s Day that gets brought up at Christmas dinner for years afterwards.
And if you want to make it genuinely effortless – for you as much as him – that’s exactly where Spitting Pig comes in.
We’ve been taking the stress out of celebrations for a long time, and Father’s Day is one of our favourite occasions to be part of. There’s something really special about cooking for a group of people who are all there for the same reason: to spend time with someone they love. Whether your gathering is five people squeezed around a garden table or fifty spilling out across a field, we show up ready to make the food a highlight rather than a headache.
No prepping, no timing panic, no mountain of washing up while everyone else is having fun – just great food arriving exactly when it should, cooked properly, by people who know exactly what they’re doing.

Spitting Pig’s menu options are broad enough that there’s genuinely something for every kind of crowd. From our signature hog roasts with perfectly crisp crackling to flavour-packed Gourmet BBQs, hearty Southern Slow Roast options and laid-back Alfresco feasts, there’s something to suit every kind of celebration. Big appetites, picky eaters, meat lovers, plant-based guests – we’ve got it covered.
Father’s Day falls on 21st June, which sounds far away until suddenly it isn’t. Bookings fill up faster than you’d expect, so if you’ve got a date in mind and a dad worth celebrating – and we’re betting you do – now’s the time to get in touch with Spitting Pig.
Give him the one thing no gift bag can hold: a day worth remembering.
