Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, then clear up.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
Hog roast hire for your event in Greenhill
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that is hog roast hire in Greenhill. The classic roll comes with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, with sides and extras to choose from. For parties at home and wakes and memorial gatherings, we can cook salads, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes and more.
Around Greenhill, 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 is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use, and send us a picture. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Organising for someone else?
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
What a hog roast costs
The biggest factors are:
- Season and day of the week
- The journey to the venue
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The number of people
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Dietary requirements
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Where the event is
- An estimate of numbers
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or NW3 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Send us your details through our quote form.
Questions from Greenhill
We’re gathering after a service at Rosslyn Hill Unitarian Chapel: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Greenhill?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Is crackling included?
Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
As a London location, Greenhill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
