Hog roast hire in Seven Dials, slow-roasted on site

We provide a fully catered hog roast: we roast, our chef carves and our staff serve. If you’d rather do it yourself, we also hire out the machine. For parties at home and work summer parties, we can cook halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and coleslaw for your guests.

In a London neighbourhood like Seven Dials, 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 a photo helps us check. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

Catered or do it yourself?

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Perfect for your event in Seven Dials

A hog roast is memorable. The smell, the carving and the crackling make it more than just food.

Lots of different events suit a hog roast. Typical bookings include:

  • Summer garden parties
  • Community events
  • Milestone birthdays
  • Wakes and memorial gatherings

Thinking of a hog roast in St Anne's Churchyard? Cooking in a park needs the owner’s permission, generally the council’s, and many parks don’t allow it.

Why choose a hog roast in Seven Dials?

Next to a street-food van, a hog roast serves a lot of people from one roast. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

What you get with us

  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow

Diets, allergies and alternatives

You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:

  • Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
  • We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them

Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.

We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.

Planners, venues and businesses

Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

Common questions in Seven Dials

Can you do a hog roast in St Anne's Churchyard?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Can you cater after a service at Soho Baptist Chapel?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

Who serves?

We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.

Where does the hog roast go?

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.

How does hog roast hire work?

We roast on site, carve to order and serve, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.

Do you provide china?

We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

Do you leave the area tidy?

Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.

Do you serve the crackling?

Of course: the skin turns to crackling and everyone gets some.

Where the roaster can go in Seven Dials

The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
  • Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
  • Cover for your guests in bad weather

Seven Dials 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.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
