How our corporate hog roast works in Newington
From a small team to a whole site, we size the roast to your numbers. Give us numbers and timings for a quote. We serve rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and crackling, and typical bookings are for away days and family fun days.

What we serve, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, especially for staff who do not eat pork.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Working with your venue
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.

Why choose a hog roast in Newington?
Compared with sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.
Why book with us
- Carved to order by a chef
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

- No surprises: everything in writing
See our prices page and the cost guide.
Catered or do it yourself?
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.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
How the day works
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. After-work summer events in Newington have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer and 8:50pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. In late September, the light goes at about 7:00pm.
