About our hog roast hire in Copse Hill
Booking a hog roast means you do not have to cook. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, then carve and serve at the time you choose. Whether it’s work summer parties and parties at home, we’ll put together a menu of hog roast rolls, salads and halloumi skewers.
Gardens in Copse Hill tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so clearance from fences and windows matters most. A word with the neighbours before a long roast is always a good idea. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Copse Hill: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at Christ Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Copse Hill?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Do we need our own staff?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Do you come to Copse Hill?
Yes, Copse Hill is in our area. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
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.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Where the roaster can go in Copse Hill
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
As a London location, Copse Hill 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.
