Mystery surrounds location of second Hoggies Hog Roast site as owners get teeth stuck into refurbishment project

Hoggies Hog Roast, located in Marmion Road, opened its doors in September following a six week refurbishment - and it’s left customers wanting more as owners, Mark Legg, Lewis Filer and Simon Hartnett, get their teeth stuck into their second location.

Despite the location being kept a secret for now, the three friends have confirmed the new site is in the design process and it is anticipated to open at the start of next year.

A spokesperson for Hoggies said: “We have already started the design process and are working closely with a local architect and our project manager to start planning the works.

“Opening a second Hoggies site was always something that was spoken about before even opening the first, we have just been so blown away by how our first site in Marmion Road has taken off, we didn't expect a new premises so quick, but we're really excited to take the concept to a new area.

“Since opening just two months ago, Hoggies is going really well. As we were bringing something new to the Portsmouth eatery scene, we were always hoping and expecting the concept to do well, but its exceeded all expectations.

“We have quickly become a popular eatery in the Southsea area and we are hoping the same energy transpires in our new location; we are sure it will.”

The new site will offer a similar menu consisting of slow roasted chicken and pork, as well as burrito bowls and breakfast dishes, ensuring there is something for everyone to tuck into.
