A hog roast near Furzedown
Hog roast hire for your event in Furzedown
In Furzedown, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. The idea is always the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. On the menu are salads, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and we’re often booked for work summer parties and summer garden parties.
In a London neighbourhood like Furzedown, 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. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

Planning help
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
- Parking near the spot
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
Furzedown is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
Name someone to meet us, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
