How our hog roast for events works in Kensal Green
Festivals and shows run for hours, and we serve through the agreed hours, carving as the queue grows. On the menu are halloumi skewers, apple sauce and hog roast rolls, and we’re often booked for food and music festivals and PTA summer fairs.
In Kensal Green, 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. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. For an autumn event in Kensal Green, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so plan lighting if you are trading into the evening.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We pack down and take our waste.
How to prepare
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

What affects the price in Kensal Green
There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The journey to the venue
- Crockery choices
- Access to the cooking area
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What to tell us
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Your date and serving time
- The address or postcode
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or NW10 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.

For event organisers in Kensal Green
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. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
