About our party hog roast in Bow
Hosting a party means juggling everything at once. A hog roast takes the food off your list: we roast, carve, serve and clear. We are frequently asked to cater engagement celebrations and big family get-togethers, with hog roast rolls, coleslaw and jacket potatoes.
In Bow, a party at home is the usual choice, and access is the question. If there’s no side gate, tell us about rear access or a front garden. Send us a picture. The hog is roasted on site at your party, low and slow, for hours.

Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.

About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, served in a roll with salads.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
For event organisers in Bow
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

Common questions in Bow
What if our house in Bow has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Which station is closest to Bow?
The closest is Hackney Wick station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a buffet, hot carved pork feels more special. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
