Hog roast hire for Rise Park
How our hog roast hire works in Rise Park
In Rise Park, a hog roast is an easy way to feed plenty of people: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. Everything comes with us, and we serve and tidy up afterwards. Typical bookings include parties at home and milestone birthdays, with new potatoes, halloumi skewers and coleslaw.
London gardens around Rise Park are frequently small and close to neighbours, so clearance from fences and windows matters most. Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours. The hog is roasted on site at your event, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, then clear up.
A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice.

Questions from Rise Park
We are gathering after a service at St James: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What if our house in Rise Park has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Do you come to Rise Park?
Yes, Rise Park is in our area. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Can we choose catered or DIY?
We offer full catering and DIY machine hire. We will explain what’s included in each when we quote.
Space, access and the venue
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- Parking near the spot
- A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
As a London location, Rise Park 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 are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
