Before you choose a spot
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
- Room for a queue that does not block paths
- The landowner’s or council’s agreement
Belgravia is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

How the day works
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your visitors, with crackling for everyone who wants it. At midsummer, events in Belgravia stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Tell us about the event.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Let us know about tight access
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a burger van, a hog roast stands out at a traditional fête. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Questions from Belgravia
Can you do a hog roast in Green Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Do you trade at school fairs around Belgravia?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Can visitors buy their own food?
That depends on the event. Let us know how you’d like it to work and we’ll talk it through.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
What affects the price in Belgravia
The price comes down to:
- Time on site
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Travel to Belgravia
- Menu choices and extras
Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Details that help
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the event is
- A picture of the cooking area
- Your menu choices
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the event is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
