Party hog roast in Bayswater

Before you choose a spot

We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:

  • Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
  • Neighbours warned about the smell
  • A spot well away from the house

As a London location, Bayswater is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

  • Stuffing and apple sauce
  • Hog roast rolls

Party hog roast in Bayswater, slow-roasted on site

Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a hog roast in the garden fits the bill. Your guests will smell it from the street. We’re frequently asked to cater neighbourhood parties and family reunions, serving hog roast rolls, jacket potatoes and rotisserie chicken.

Planning a London party in Bayswater? A hog roast keeps you out of the kitchen, at home or a hall with a garden. A long roast means a word with the neighbours. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Party venues around Bayswater

Bayswater is about 1 mile north-east of Kensington, in Greater London. We cover parties in Bayswater. Bayswater is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover.

Parks such as Kensington Palace Green generally need permission from the council or landowner for any cooking, so check first. A christening at Essex Street Chapel followed by a hog roast at home is a simple, popular plan.

For parties in W2, W8 and W11, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and a serving time. Whether your party is on Dukes Lane, Salem Road and Aubrey Road or anywhere nearby, we can set up and roast there. You’ll find Bayswater on the A4204 and A4206, which makes the journey straightforward. We also bring hog roasts to parties in Westbourne (1 mile north), Westbourne Green (1 mile north), Little Venice (1 mile north-east), Paddington (1 mile north-east) and Paddington Green (1 mile north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover London (4 miles east), St Pancras (3 miles east), Shoreditch (5 miles east), Walthamstow (9 miles north-east), Hoxton (5 miles east) and Whitechapel (5 miles east).

Nearby you’ll also find Kensington Arcade (0.6 miles south) and Greek Orthodox Cathedral Treasury Museum (within half a mile north). The countryside around Bayswater includes Greville Place nature reserve and The Long Water.

  • Nearby schools include Lansdowne College (within half a mile north-east) and Kensington School (0.6 miles south)
  • Local pubs include The Churchill Arms (less than half a mile south)
  • Other local spots include Ladbroke Estate (0.6 miles west) and Abdus Salam Library (1 mile south-east)

Working with your venue

For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.

Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

Why choose a hog roast in Bayswater?

Compared with a restaurant booking, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

What you get with us

  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow

Take a look at our pricing and our hog roast cost guide.

The process

We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Bayswater, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.

  1. Show us the garden or drive.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. We cook for hours on site.
  4. We serve when you are ready.
  5. We leave the garden tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

How to get a price

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We will confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs

Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Keep the vegetarian option labelled
  • Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option

Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

What’s the nearest station to Bayswater?

London Paddington station, about 0.9 miles north-east of the centre.

What if our house in Bayswater has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

Is crockery included?

The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.

Do we need our own staff?

No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

Can you roast in the rain?

We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.

  • Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
