About our hog roast hire in Golders Green
Hog roast hire takes the cooking off your hands. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, then carve and serve at the time you choose. Typical bookings include wedding breakfasts and evening food and festive gatherings, with spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes.
Around Golders Green, most London bookings are in back gardens, yards, school grounds and car parks. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us whether there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use, and a photo helps us check. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Questions from Golders Green
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Alban the Martyr?
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’ll gather.
Can you do a hog roast in Childs Hill Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.
Can we choose catered or DIY?
You can have us cook, or hire the machine. We will explain what’s included in each when we quote.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.

- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
