Planning a hog roast in Camden Town
Camden Town is about 2 miles north of City of Westminster, in Greater London. From village halls to gardens and fields, events around Camden Town suit a hog roast. Camden Town is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover.
Within reach of Camden Town are historic houses such as Winfield House (1.2 miles south-west) and Keats House (1.6 miles north-west). Historic venues often limit cooking on site, so ask early if you’re booking one. A green space like Lewis Cubitt Park is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s.
Here we cover the NW1, N1C, NW5 and NW3 postcode area, and we can cater your event anywhere in it. From Camden High Street, Greenland Road and Camden Road or anywhere nearby, we can set up and roast there. With the A400 and B512 close by, Camden Town is easy for us to reach for your event. Nearby, we also cater events in Agar Town (1 mile east), Kentish Town (1 mile north-west), Chalk Farm (1 mile north-west), Somers Town (1 mile south-east) and Primrose Hill (1 mile west). Further out, we also cater in London (3 miles south-east), Kensington (4 miles south-west), Shoreditch (3 miles east), Walthamstow (6 miles north-east), Whitechapel (3 miles south-east) and Ruislip (12 miles west).
A little further out are Brunswick Centre (1.3 miles south-east) and Central Saint Martins Museum & Study Collection (0.7 miles south-east). The countryside around Camden Town includes St. James's Park Lake and Adelaide Nature Reserve.
- Nearby schools include North Bridge House School (less than half a mile south-west) and The Camden School for Girls (0.5 miles north-east)

Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
Let us know if the day runs late: we can hold the roast for a while.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.
The process
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. Around midsummer it stays light in Camden Town until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the space and quote.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We clear up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
