Christmas hog roast in Adelphi, slow-roasted on site
Add roast turkey alongside the hog, with roast potatoes on the side. There are options for people who don’t eat pork. On the menu are roast turkey, hog roast rolls and roast potatoes, and we’re regularly asked to cater lights switch-on evenings and festive family get-togethers.
Around Adelphi, a Christmas booking needs a lit, covered outdoor cooking spot. In London, access needs planning, as December is busy on the roads. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls.

Prices and what affects them
Things that change the price:
- Travel to Adelphi
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Crockery choices
- Menu choices and extras
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What to tell us
Here’s what we will ask:
- An estimate of numbers
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Where the event is
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
When you’re weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. Ours lists it clearly. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Planning the cooking spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- A safe distance from anything that could catch the heat
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
As a London location, Adelphi is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
Popular choices
- Hog roast rolls
- Roast potatoes
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Salads
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Rotisserie chicken
- Vegan option (Ve)

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Why choose Christmas hog roast in Adelphi?
It is different from the usual Christmas set menu.
Hosts in Adelphi book us for small gatherings and big outdoor days alike. Popular choices:
- Christmas fairs
- December open days
- Year-end thank-yous
- Festive family get-togethers
A winter fair at a school like St Clement Danes CofE Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular.

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. A lunchtime Christmas party in Adelphi is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.
- Send us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

Questions from Adelphi
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Adelphi?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in Victoria Embankment Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
Is mains power needed?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Is turkey available?
Yes, roast turkey is available for Christmas events, as well as the hog.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
When should we book our Christmas party?
As early as possible, especially for Fridays and Saturdays. Ask as soon as you know your date.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Planners, venues and businesses
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
