Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in East End of London

Looking after everyone
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
We set up while it is still light, then roast through the afternoon.
Roast potatoes suit a winter menu.
Is a hog roast right for your Christmas party?

Why us?
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

Common questions in East End of London
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in East End of London?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Stepney Green Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Who serves?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
