What happens on the day
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Autumn and winter afternoons in Bounds Green get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so we plan lighting for later gatherings.
- Contact us as soon as you have a date.
- We check the cooking spot with the venue.
- We cook on site.
- We serve quietly.
- We leave the venue tidy.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Bounds Green questions
Can you do a hog roast in O. R. Tambo Recreation Ground?
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.
We are gathering after a service at St Barnabas Greek Orthodox Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you do something else?
Yes, add chicken or a vegetarian option for those who need them.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
How much room do you need?
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.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Planning the cooking spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- Space inside for guests
- A contact for the day who isn’t immediate family
- Vehicle access near the cooking area
As a London location, Bounds Green 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.
