FAQs for Bayswater
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Bayswater?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Could you cook in Kensington Palace Green?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Do you cover Bayswater?
Yes, Bayswater is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
About our corporate hog roast in Bayswater
Long-service awards, retirements and site openings in Bayswater all suit a hog roast, as a thank-you to the team. We serve halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and crackling, and we are often booked for retirement do’s and open days and family days.
Around Bayswater, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and courtyards. Get facilities’ approval for gas cooking early. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

What a hog roast costs
Your quote depends on:
- The number of people
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Which meats and sides you choose
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Where the event is
When you’re weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. Ours lists it clearly. To get yours, send us your details through our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re 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’ll keep everyone in the loop.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Step by step
Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. After-work summer events in Bayswater have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer and 8:55pm in late May, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:05pm.
