What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Parking near the spot
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
As a London location, Castle Green is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: 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 you book.

Your questions about a hog roast in Castle Green
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Castle Green?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you cater after a service at St John the Divine?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
What happens when we hire a hog roast?
You choose the date, the menu and the serving time; we do the rest. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.
Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?
Either: fully catered, where we roast, carve and serve, or DIY machine hire. Catering is the most popular choice.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What a hog roast costs
Your quote depends on:
- The journey to the venue
- Time on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Season and day of the week
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Details that help
To check the date and the space, tell us:
- The venue or postcode
- The date and time of the event
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Any venue rules
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the event is and roughly how many. A photo of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
