Paddington Green: your questions answered
What if our house in Paddington Green has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can you do a hog roast in Kensington Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Can you do gluten-free?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Can you sell directly to visitors?
It depends on how your event works. Let us know how you’d like it to work and we’ll talk it through.

What else we do in Paddington Green
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
What happens on the day
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your visitors, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Paddington Green are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.

What affects the price in Paddington Green
Each price is built from:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china
- How long the roast and service take
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Details that help
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Allergies we should know about
- Your date and serving time

Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with burger vans, a hog roast stands out at a traditional fête. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why us?
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Served at the time you choose
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
