How our hog roast for events works in Bowes Park
For organisers, one reliable hot-food trader makes life easier. We bring everything, roast on the pitch and leave it clean. For food and music festivals and tournaments and sports days, we’ll put together a menu of a vegan burger or sausage, crackling and apple sauce and more.
Events in Bowes Park range from street parties and school fairs to markets and festivals. Public spaces usually need council permission, and the roaster needs a pitch with clearance. Our chef carves in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

The process
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Summer events in Bowes Park have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Bowes Park
Can you do a hog roast in Woodside Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you come to a school fair in Bowes Park?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
Do you do fêtes?
We love fêtes. Get in touch.
Do you serve the food?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what your event requires, and we will tell you what we can send.

Before you choose a spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- A level pitch
- Access for our vehicle to the pitch
- Space for people to queue
Bowes Park 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.
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
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Looking after everyone
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Show allergens at the stall
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Halal isn’t offered
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
If the ground is soft, we’ll need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.
If your event has a theme, tell us.
The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
