Slow-roasted pork in Fish Island
Christmas hog roast in Fish Island, slow-roasted on site
Roast turkey can join the pork for a traditional touch, with roast potatoes on the side. There are options for people who don’t eat pork. We serve roast turkey, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce, and we’re regularly asked to cater christmas fairs and christmas family parties.
For Christmas parties in Fish Island, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. Plan access early, as December is busy on the roads. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Before you choose a spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- Vehicle access close by
- Clearance from walls and tents
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
As a London location, Fish Island 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 you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Why choose a hog roast in Fish Island?
Compared with a restaurant Christmas party, a hog roast at your venue keeps everyone together and is frequently better value. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why us?
- No surprises: everything in writing
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to

Organising for someone else?
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Count who does not eat pork
- Share the allergen information in advance
If the party runs late, we can hold the roast a little, so keep us posted.
Festive lights around the serving area look great.
