Planning an event in Canning Town?
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Corporate hog roast in Canning Town, carved to order
Workplaces have rules, and we work to them: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Pass on your site’s requirements. Whether it’s summer staff parties and retirement do’s, we can cook rotisserie chicken, crackling and coleslaw.
Around Canning Town, workplace bookings tend to use car parks, yards and courtyards. Facilities teams normally need to approve gas equipment and access. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

What else we do in Canning Town
How we price a hog roast for your team
Things that change the price:
- Crockery choices
- How long the roast and service take
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Season and day of the week
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- The address or postcode
- Your date and serving time
- Dietary requirements
- Roughly how many people
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: fill in our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Someone to meet us at reception
- Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
Canning Town 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.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
From the roaster
- Rotisserie chicken
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Coleslaw
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Salads
- Spit-roast lamb

Step by step
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. For a staff lunch in Canning Town, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You send us the site address, date, numbers and serving window.
- You get a check on the date and the site, and a quote.
- On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- We pack away and leave the site as we found it.
Preparing for the day

FAQs for Canning Town
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Canning Town?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in Keir Hardie Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
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.
