Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Balance the food line-up
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
Chicken widens the choice.
Hog roast for events near Holloway

In Holloway, community events include street parties, school fairs and markets. Organisers generally need council permission for public spaces, and we need a pitch we can reach. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Any paperwork the organisers need
- A firm way on and off the field
- A level pitch
Holloway is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

How it works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your visitors will smell it long before they see it. Late-May events in Holloway have light until about 8:50pm, while at midsummer it’s about 9:20pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We roast on the pitch.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Gather dietary requirements early

Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why us?
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Timed around your day
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
