Wennington questions
Can you do a hog roast in Wildspace Conservation Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Wennington?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Requirements vary: pass on your list and we’ll respond.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
Can you feed everyone in a short break?
Tell us the numbers and the time and we’ll make it work.
Can it be more formal?
With china and sides, it works well for clients.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Clearance from the building and parked cars
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
- A contact on site
As a London location, Wennington is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
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.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
What happens on the day
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. If your staff event in Wennington runs into the evening, check the light: about 9:20pm in June, 7:05pm in late September and 3:50pm in December.

Planning help
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Find out how many do not eat pork, for the alternatives
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
We serve on time, keeping the queue moving.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with individual food vans, a hog roast feeds a lot of people quickly from one roast. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why Wennington hosts choose us
- Timed around your day
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Serving and clearing done for you
