Christmas hog roast in Lambeth, carved to order

Common questions in Lambeth
Can you do a hog roast in Old Paradise Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
What’s the nearest station to Lambeth?
Vauxhall station, in Lambeth itself.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Do hog roasts work in winter?
Hot food suits winter perfectly.
What happens if it’s dark?
It gets dark early, so we plan lighting with you.
Do guests have to eat outside?
Cooking is always outdoors; guests can eat inside.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Roast turkey
Turkey and pork together cover traditionalists and crackling fans alike.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
