Planning a hog roast in Old Chiswick
Old Chiswick is about 2 miles south of Acton, in Greater London. Old Chiswick is well within our area for events and the places nearby. We bring hog roasts to 764 places across Greater London. We cater events right across the region, from Old Chiswick to London (7 miles away).
Thinking of a hog roast in Turnham Green? Cooking in a park needs the owner’s permission, generally the council’s, and many parks don’t allow it. After a service at St. Nicholas Church, the hog roast can be ready at a nearby hall or house.
This part of Greater London takes in W4, SW13 and W6, so your event can be anywhere in it. That could mean an event in a garden on Short Road, Quick Road and Paxton Road or the roads around them, wherever there’s an outdoor spot for the roaster. If your venue is just outside Old Chiswick, we also cover Turnham Green (1 mile west), Chiswick (1 mile north-west), Grove Park (1 mile west), Barnes (1 mile south) and Hammersmith (1 mile north-east).

Hog roast hire for your event in Old Chiswick
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, for hours, under a gazebo outside. When it is ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. Whether it’s club events and presentations and corporate events, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken.
London gardens around Old Chiswick are frequently small and close to neighbours, so clearance from fences and windows matters most. A word with the neighbours before a long roast is always a good idea. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Old Chiswick questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Old Chiswick?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in Turnham Green?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
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.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Do you come to Old Chiswick?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.
Do you serve the crackling?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
Planning the cooking spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- Access for our equipment, without steps
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
Old Chiswick 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.
