A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which frequently makes it better value. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why book with us
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Timed around your day
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

Whether your event is on Patriot Square, Ion Square and Victoria Park Square or a nearby road, we can set up and roast there.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
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.

What we serve, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.

How it works
Here’s how the day normally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Late September evenings in Bethnal Green lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Before we arrive
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Bethnal Green questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Bethnal Green?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Can you cater after a service at St Peter's?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
Do you cover Bethnal Green?

Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
How do we prepare?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
