Party hog roast in Chalk Farm
Party hog roast in Chalk Farm, carved to order
In Chalk Farm, a hog roast is a favourite for birthdays and garden parties: hearty food that feeds everyone at once. We serve and tidy up. On the menu are coleslaw, apple sauce and jacket potatoes, and we’re often booked for retirement celebrations and milestone birthdays.
Most parties in Chalk Farm are at home, and in London that means getting the roaster into the garden. If there’s no side gate, tell us about rear access or a front garden. A photo helps. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Access to the cooking area
- Numbers
- Distance from us
Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Dietary requirements
- The date and time of the event
- An estimate of numbers
- The address or postcode
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the party is and roughly how many. A photo of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
Chalk Farm questions
Can you cater after a service at St Silas Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Could you cook in Primrose Hill?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
We cover the cooking area, but plan somewhere dry for guests.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
Let them know in advance, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
