For offices in and around Paddington, the roaster generally goes in a car park, yard or courtyard, if the building allows gas cooking. Facilities teams generally need to approve gas equipment and access.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Planning a team lunch in Paddington
Paddington is about 1 mile west of City of Westminster, in Greater London. We bring a hog roast for your team to staff events anywhere in Paddington, given a suitable outdoor cooking area. Paddington is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we cater.
Among the historic houses close to Paddington are Winfield House (1 mile north) and Kensington Palace (1.1 miles south-west). For a client event at a historic house, ask early about rules for outside caterers. Teams travelling in by rail can use the station: London Paddington station is in Paddington itself.
Here we cover the W2, W1H and W1U postcode area, so your staff event can be anywhere in it. Streets in the area include Harrow Road, Craven Road and Harbet Road, and a staff event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. You’ll find Paddington on the A5 and A40, so it’s easy for us to reach with the equipment. Other places close to Paddington we cover include Paddington Green (1 mile north-west), Hyde Park Estate (1 mile south-east), Connaught Village (1 mile south-east), Tyburn (1 mile south-east) and Little Venice (1 mile north-west). Further out, we also cater in London (4 miles east), Shoreditch (4 miles east), Walthamstow (8 miles north-east), Hoxton (4 miles east), Whitechapel (4 miles east) and Ruislip (11 miles west).
A little further out are Ladbroke Estate (1.5 miles west) and Montfichet's Tower (3.1 miles east). The countryside around Paddington includes Greville Place nature reserve and The Long Water.
- Nearby schools include Hampden Gurney CofE Primary School (under half a mile east) and North Westminster Community School (less than half a mile north-east)
- Local pubs include Fountains Abbey pub (less than half a mile south)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include Royal Society of Medicine Library (1.1 miles east)
How it works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. After-work summer events in Paddington have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer and 8:55pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. In late September, the light goes at about 7:05pm.

Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Whether you want china
- Travel to Paddington
- Site access
- Numbers
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Allergies we should know about
- Your menu choices
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Rough numbers
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Use our quote form.
FAQs for Paddington
What if our house in Paddington has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you do a hog roast in Royal Parks of London?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How do we book for a business?
Tell us what your accounts team needs when you enquire, and we’ll explain the booking terms.
Where on site can you cook?
A car park, yard or grounds normally works, if there’s a level spot away from buildings and vehicles.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can you work to our lunch time?
We plan the roast around your break. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Tell us what your site asks for, and we will tell you what we can send.

Questions to ask before booking
- The deposit, balance and cancellation terms
- VAT, if it applies
- How dietary needs are handled
- Travel and any London charges
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
Let us know about changes: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
Ask about china for a more formal lunch, quoted separately.
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast is easier to organise and keeps people together. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
