How our hog roast hire works in Notting Hill
The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a roll, and alternatives for anyone who doesn’t eat pork. For weddings and receptions and garden parties and barbecues, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, salads and rotisserie chicken.
In a London neighbourhood like Notting Hill, 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 picture. Timings are planned around your event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Notting Hill: venues, access and local tips
Notting Hill is about 1 mile north of Kensington, in Greater London. Notting Hill and the surrounding area are covered for events. We bring hog roasts to 764 places in Greater London.
If you had Holland Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we cannot simply set up a roaster in a public park. If you’re gathering after a service at a church like St John's Notting Hill, a nearby hall or garden suits a hog roast.
We bring hog roasts to events all over W11, W8 and W2 and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Walmer Road, Aubrey Road and Sirdar Road, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. With the A402 and A4204 close by, Notting Hill is easy for us to reach with the roaster. For events just outside Notting Hill, we cover Holland Park (1 mile south), Notting Dale (1 mile north-west), Kensington (1 mile south), Shepherd's Bush (1 mile south-west) and White City (1 mile west). Further out, we also cater in London (5 miles east), Marylebone (3 miles east), St Pancras (4 miles east), Shoreditch (6 miles east), Walthamstow (9 miles north-east) and Hoxton (5 miles east).
Well-known places in the area include Greek Orthodox Cathedral Treasury Museum (0.6 miles east) and Ladbroke Estate (less than half a mile north-west). Open spaces near Notting Hill include Campden Hill and The Long Water.
- Nearby schools include Holland Park School (under half a mile south) and Kensington School (0.9 miles south-east)
- Pubs nearby include The Sun In Splendour pub (within half a mile east)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include Abdus Salam Library (1.4 miles south-east)
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
We’ll be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
Why choose a hog roast in Notting Hill?
Compared with food vans, a hog roast feeds a crowd quickly from one roast, with no waiting for individual orders to cook. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Why book with us
- Timed around your day
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
Read how we price and what a hog roast costs.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Access for our equipment, without steps
Notting Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

What else we do in Notting Hill
The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. In Notting Hill, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is typically in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
