Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
How our hog roast for events works in Holland Park
School fairs and sports days need food that families like. Pork rolls, chicken and a vegan option cover most visitors. Whether it is car and steam shows and school events, we can cook hog roast rolls, crackling and apple sauce and more.
Events in Holland 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 staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve.

Step by step
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. For an autumn event in Holland Park, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so evening trading needs lights.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

What affects the price in Holland Park
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Distance from us
- Menu choices and extras
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Access to the cooking area
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Details that help
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Rough numbers
- What the outdoor space is like
- The address or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Why choose a hog roast in Holland Park?
At large shows, tell us expected numbers. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Carved by our chef in front of your visitors
