Hog roast for events near Southwark
At a fête, fair or festival in Southwark, a hog roast stall draws a crowd. We roast on the pitch through the day and carve rolls to order, keeping the queue moving. We’re often asked to cater town and village days and fundraising events, serving apple sauce, rotisserie chicken and crackling.
In Southwark, street events mean planning closures and access. Send us the pitch and timings. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Southwark: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Southwark?
Elephant & Castle station, about 0.5 miles south of the centre.
Do you trade at school fairs around Southwark?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.
What comes with the hog roast?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Who serves?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
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 discuss the options.
Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we will bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
What happens on the day
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. For an autumn event in Southwark, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Send final numbers in good time
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

How we price a hog roast for your event
We do not use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:
- How long the roast and service take
- Menu choices and extras
- Numbers
- Crockery choices
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Your menu choices
- Roughly how many people
- A photo of the cooking area
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: use our quote form.
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A level pitch
- A vehicle route onto the pitch
- Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
Southwark 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
What we serve
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
