How our hog roast hire works in West Silvertown
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, over several hours, outdoors under cover. When it’s ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. We serve hog roast rolls, salads and spit-roast lamb, and we are regularly asked to cater summer garden parties and village fêtes and school fairs.
From a family garden to an office courtyard, bookings in West Silvertown come in all shapes. Tell us how we get the equipment in. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How we price a hog roast
The biggest factors are:
- How many people are eating
- Menu choices and extras
- The journey to the venue
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What to tell us
Here’s what we will ask:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The address or postcode
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Dietary requirements
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the event is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.
FAQs for West Silvertown
We’re gathering after a service at St Barnabas' Church: can you cater?
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.
Which station is closest to West Silvertown?
Custom House station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.
Do you travel across Greater London?

What happens in bad weather?

Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.

Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
How it works
Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Light matters for a long roast: in West Silvertown, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Where the roaster can go in West Silvertown

- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
West Silvertown 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which normally keeps the cost down. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.

Allergies and dietary needs

- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
If timings shift, tell us: we can hold the roast for a while.
