About our Christmas hog roast in Notting Dale

We plan for winter weather: the roast is under cover; guests need somewhere dry. A hall, office or marquee works well. Typical bookings include winter open days and family Christmas gatherings, serving crackling, rotisserie chicken and roast turkey.

London Christmas parties in Notting Dale are often at offices, pubs with a courtyard or homes with a garden. Tell us about lighting and access. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How it works

Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. In Notting Dale, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.

  1. Book early for December.
  2. We check your venue and send a quote.
  3. We set up under cover in daylight.
  4. We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
  5. We tidy up and leave.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

What we serve, dish by dish

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
  • Share the allergen information in advance

If the party runs late, we can hold the roast a little, so tell us about delays.

Festive lights around the serving area look great.

Should I cook it myself?

Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Space, access and the venue

Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:

  • A lit route to the food
  • Indoor space for eating
  • Hardstanding if possible in winter

Notting Dale is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

FAQs for Notting Dale

What if our house in Notting Dale has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Which station is closest to Notting Dale?

The closest is Shepherds Bush station, roughly 0.7 miles away.

How long does the roast need?

A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

Where does the hog roast go?

Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.

Can you cater outdoors in December?

Winter is a great time for a hog roast, as long as guests have shelter.

What if it rains?

We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.

Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?

Yes, roast turkey is available for Christmas events, alongside the pork.

Do you clear up?

We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.

Is a hog roast right for your Christmas party?

Next to a winter barbecue, a hog roast copes much better with the cold. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
