Hog roast hire in Norwood New Town, carved to order
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, which means it’s carved hot, with crisp crackling. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. We are frequently asked to cater summer garden parties and festive gatherings, with hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and new potatoes.
In a London neighbourhood like Norwood New Town, the big question is getting the roaster to the cooking spot. 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 send us a picture. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which frequently makes it better value. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
Why book with us
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Sides to make it a full meal
- An itemised quote

What affects the price in Norwood New Town
There is no fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- Menu choices and extras
- The number of people
- Site access
- The date and time of year
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The venue or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- A photo of the cooking area
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, then clear up.
China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.
Should I cook it myself?
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.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
