Christmas hog roast for Walthamstow
Christmas hog roast in Walthamstow, carved to order
From office parties to village Christmas fairs, we cater festive events around Walthamstow, from small teams to big crowds. We’re often asked to cater festive family get-togethers and boxing Day and New Year gatherings, with crackling, roast turkey and hog roast rolls.
For Christmas parties in Walthamstow, 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.

How the day works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. By about 3:50pm in late December, Walthamstow is dark. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station.
- Send us your Christmas party date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue and send a price.
- We set up under cover in daylight and roast through the afternoon.
- The team serves hot rolls at the agreed time.
- We tidy up and go, whatever the weather.
Preparing for the day
- Send final numbers in good time
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Walthamstow: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Walthamstow?
Walthamstow has its own station: Walthamstow Central station.
Can you do a hog roast in Lloyd Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?
Roast turkey can be added for Christmas, as well as the hog.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Crockery choices
- Travel to Walthamstow
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and time of the event
- Roughly how many people
When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, fill in our quote form.
What we serve, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Label alternatives clearly
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
We set up while it is still light, and cook into the evening.
Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Where the roaster can go in Walthamstow
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Parking near the cooking area
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
Walthamstow is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
