For event organisers in Tyburn
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
FAQs for Tyburn
Could you cook in Hyde Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Tyburn?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Can you wait?
Give us a contact for the day and we will adjust.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
Who serves?
You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.

About the food

Where the roaster can go in Tyburn
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A hall or room for eating
- A short route for the equipment
- A contact for the day who isn’t immediate family
As a London location, Tyburn 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.

How it works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Wakes in Tyburn are normally in the afternoon, so light is rarely a problem, though in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

- We reply quickly with a price.
- The roast cooks while you’re at the service.
- We serve calmly as people arrive.
- We pack up quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
