About our Christmas hog roast in Finsbury Park
Fridays in December go first, so contact us as soon as you know your date. For club and society Christmas parties and work Christmas parties, we will put together a menu of halloumi skewers, roast potatoes and roast turkey.
Around Finsbury Park, a Christmas booking needs a lit, covered outdoor cooking spot. Plan access early, as December is busy on the roads. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
Your quote depends on:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The journey to the venue
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What we need to know
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the event is
- A photo of the cooking area
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.

Planning help
Space, access and the venue
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
As a London location, Finsbury Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

The menu, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we’ll plan the vegan burgers or sausages.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
