About our hog roast hire in Woodside Park
Hog roast hire takes the cooking off your hands. We get there early, put up the cover and roast for hours, then carve and serve at the time you choose. Whether it’s wakes and memorial gatherings and village fêtes and school fairs, we can cook crackling, new potatoes and salads and more.
From a family garden to an office courtyard, bookings in Woodside Park 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.

What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.

For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so you only need to provide the space.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast, priced in the quote.
Prices and what affects them
We work out each quote from:
- Whether you want china
- Numbers
- How long the roast and service take
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it helps to include:
- An estimate of numbers

Is a hog roast right for your event?

How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Woodside Park, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm.

Nearby historic houses include Heath Hall (3 miles south) and Kenwood House (3.2 miles south). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for caterers, so check before you book.

For events in N12, N3 and N20, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many guests. Local streets include High Road, Lodge Lane and Percy Road; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in.

Where the roaster can go in Woodside Park
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- Parking near the spot
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
Woodside Park 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.
