Hog roast hire in Acton Vale, slow-roasted on site
Booking a hog roast means you do not have to cook. We get there early, put up the cover and roast for hours, then carve and serve at the time you choose. We’re frequently asked to cater big birthdays and anniversaries and summer garden parties, with salads, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken.
London gardens around Acton Vale are often small and close to neighbours, so we look for a spot well away from fences, sheds and windows. A word with the neighbours before a long roast is always a good idea. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal, and they’re listed in your quote.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Access for our equipment, without steps
- Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
Acton Vale 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.
