How our hog roast hire works in College Park
Our hog roast hire is fully catered: roasting, carving and serving are all done for you. If you’d rather do it yourself, we also hire out the machine. For gatherings after a funeral and christmas parties, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, crackling and new potatoes.
In a London neighbourhood like College Park, the big question is getting the roaster to the cooking spot. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us whether there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use, and send us a photo. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.

Working with your venue
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Planning a hog roast in College Park

Thinking of a hog roast in Little Wormwood Scrubs? Cooking in a park needs the owner’s permission, typically the council’s, and many parks don’t allow it. Nearby historic houses include Leighton House (2.6 miles south-east) and Sambourne House (2.7 miles south-east). Historic venues often limit cooking on site, so ask early if you are booking one.
We cater events across the NW10, W10 and NW26 postcode area and the streets around it. That could mean an event in a garden on Tubbs Road, Waldo Road and Hythe Road, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook.

Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Common questions in College Park
We’re gathering after a service at Saint Mark's: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
What if our house in College Park has no side access?
Often, if there is 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 in College Park?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including College Park and Greater London. Send us the address for a quote.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can we choose catered or DIY?
Either: we can cater fully or hire out the machine. Catering is the most popular choice.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
The hog is the centrepiece, but lamb and chicken can be added.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, in a roll, with salad on the side.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal, and they’re listed in your quote.
