How our party hog roast works in Adelphi
Throwing a party is hard work. With a hog roast, the food is sorted: we roast, carve, serve and clear. Typical bookings include close and cul-de-sac parties and engagement celebrations, serving apple sauce, crackling and rotisserie chicken.
Most parties in Adelphi are at home, and in London that means getting the roaster into the garden. With no side passage, a rear gate or front garden may work. Send us a photo. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A heads-up for next door
- A wet-weather plan for guests
Adelphi 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 you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Is a hog roast right for your party?
Next to a party buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. Sunset in Adelphi is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.

Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
FAQs for Adelphi
Which station is closest to Adelphi?
London Charing Cross station, in Adelphi itself.
Can you do a hog roast in Victoria Embankment Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Is clearing up included?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
It’s worth warning them: roasting takes hours. Some hosts invite them over for a roll.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
Have a word with the neighbours first: the roast cooks for hours, and they may ask for a roll.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
