Your questions about a hog roast in Agar Town
What’s the nearest station to Agar Town?
Camden Road station, in Agar Town itself.
Can you do a hog roast in Lewis Cubitt Park?

Will there be enough to go round?

Do you travel across Greater London?
We cover Greater London and the rest of London and the South East. Tell us the venue for a quote.

What happens on the day
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Late September evenings in Agar Town lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
- We carve and serve when you’re ready to eat.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.

Working with your venue
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Prices and what affects them
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Menu choices and extras
- Season and day of the week
- How many people are eating
- Distance from us
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Dietary requirements
- Rough numbers
- The venue or postcode
- What the outdoor space is like
It’s easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Why choose a hog roast in Agar Town?
Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds everyone at once, so nobody stands at a grill all afternoon. See our guide to hog roast or barbecue. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why Agar Town hosts choose us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Carved to order by a chef
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Planned to your running order
