Parties in Canary Wharf: homes, halls and local tips

Canary Wharf is about 2 miles north-west of Greenwich, in Greater London. We set up the roaster at gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Canary Wharf and the surrounding area. We bring hog roasts to 764 places across Greater London.

Nearby historic houses include Queen's House (1.8 miles south) and Mansion House (3.1 miles west). For most parties, a garden or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict catering rules. For guests coming by train, there is a station right in Canary Wharf: Canary Wharf station.

Anywhere in E14, SE16 and E22, we can roast on site for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Castor Lane, Cassilis Road and Dockyard Lane, and a party on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. With the A1261 close by, Canary Wharf is easy for us to reach for your party. Other places close to Canary Wharf we cover include London Docklands (1 mile east), Poplar (1 mile north-east), Heron Quays (1 mile south-west), Coldharbour (1 mile east) and Blackwall (1 mile east). Further out, we also cater in London (3 miles west), City of Westminster (6 miles west), Marylebone (6 miles west), Kensington (8 miles west), St Pancras (4 miles west) and Shoreditch (3 miles north-west).

Nearby you will also find Poplar Hospital (0.7 miles north-east) and Greenwich Castle (2 miles south). The countryside around Canary Wharf includes St. James's Park Lake and Tower Hill.

  • Schools near Canary Wharf include Tower Hamlets College (within half a mile north-east) and Canary Wharf College 3 (0.8 miles south)
  • Pubs nearby include The Ledger Building pub (within half a mile north-west)
  • Local facilities include Holy Trinity (1.8 miles north-west)

Party hog roast in Canary Wharf, slow-roasted on site

Birthdays, christenings and summer parties in Canary Wharf suit a hog roast: one roast, enough for a crowd. We serve and tidy up. Whether it’s christenings and back-garden get-togethers, we can cook jacket potatoes, a vegan burger or sausage and rotisserie chicken and more.

Most parties in Canary Wharf are at home, and in London that means getting the roaster into the garden. If there is no side gate, tell us about rear access or a front garden. Send us a photo.

Common questions in Canary Wharf

What if our house in Canary Wharf 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.

What’s the nearest station to Canary Wharf?

Canary Wharf has its own station: Canary Wharf station.

When do you start roasting?

It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. You will know our arrival time in advance.

Should we warn the neighbours?

It’s worth warning them: roasting takes hours. They may want a roll.

Is our garden suitable?

Most gardens can work, given access for the equipment. A picture helps.

Do you bring plates and clear up?

Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.

How much does a hog roast cost?

Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.

Do you cover Canary Wharf?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, Canary Wharf and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.

Events we cater in Canary Wharf

The roast becomes part of the entertainment.

We’re booked for all kinds of occasions in Canary Wharf and nearby. Popular bookings include:

  • Retirement celebrations
  • Big birthday parties
  • Christenings and naming days
  • Engagement parties

If you had Sir John McDougall Gardens in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we cannot simply set up a roaster in a public park.

What your quote should include

  • Staffing on the day
  • How long the roast takes and when they’ll arrive
  • VAT, if it applies
  • The full menu and the sides

Choosing a hog roast caterer

Catered or do it yourself?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

How it works

The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook. Evening parties in Canary Wharf need a little planning: it is light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.

  1. Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
  2. We check the garden or drive and quote.
  3. We set up hours ahead.
  4. We carve and serve at food time.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Planning help

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Keep the vegetarian option labelled
  • Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Collect dietary needs when guests reply
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food

At food time, we carve and serve, then clear up the serving area.

Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.

What we serve, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children usually like it too.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.

Organising for someone else?

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what affects the price:

  • Time on site
  • Season and day of the week
  • Crockery choices
  • Which meats and sides you choose

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

What to tell us

To get the best quote, tell us:

  • Your menu choices
  • The venue or postcode
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Rough numbers

To get a quote, just send us your date, venue and numbers. A photo of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.

Planning the cooking spot

The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:

  • Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches
  • A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
  • A level patio, lawn or driveway

Canary Wharf 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.

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