Party hog roast in Bermondsey, carved to order
For a relaxed party, you can hire the machine and cook it yourself. Most people choose the catered option, so they can enjoy the party. Whether it is 18th, 21st, 40th, 50th and 60th birthdays and leaving and retirement do’s, we can cook coleslaw, crackling and jacket potatoes and more.
Most parties in Bermondsey 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. A photo helps. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as St Mary Magdalen Bermondsey or St Mary-at-Hill, with a hog roast at home or in a hall afterwards.

Full catering or machine hire?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Think about children’s portions
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours, and they may ask for a roll.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.

Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- A word with the neighbours
- A spot well away from the house
- A step-free way into the garden
Bermondsey 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 are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

About the food
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Step by step
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. Evening parties in Bermondsey need a little planning: it is light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.

A green space like Bermondsey Spa Gardens is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, normally the council’s.
