About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Planning the cooking spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A contact for the day who isn’t immediate family
- Permission from the hall or venue
- A safe distance from the hall
As a London location, Wembley is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Common questions in Wembley
Which station is closest to Wembley?
North Wembley station, about 0.5 miles west of the centre.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Wembley?
Frequently, 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.
What’s included?
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.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
Can you do something else?
Yes, add chicken or a vegetarian option.
Is a week’s notice enough?
Typically. Contact us as soon as you have a date and we’ll answer straight away.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
For event organisers in Wembley
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
Is a hog roast right for your wake?
Compared with family members cooking, we take the cooking off the family’s hands. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

How the day works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. In late September, sunset in Wembley is about 7:05pm; in December, about 3:55pm, so a later wake may need lighting outside.
- Contact us as soon as you have a date.
- We confirm the space.
- We set up and roast on the day.
- Our staff serve without fuss.
- We leave the venue tidy.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
