About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, a hot, filling option of their own.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can bring everything through.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
Questions from Chelsea
Can you cater after a service at Former Welsh Congregational Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Chelsea?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
Not for the cooking, but a gazebo or indoor space for guests is a good backup.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Most children like pork in a soft roll, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You will know our arrival time in advance.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Parties in Chelsea: homes, halls and local tips
Chelsea is about 2 miles south-east of Kensington, in Greater London. Thinking about a hog roast for your party in Chelsea? We can help. We cover 764 places in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages.
Historic houses near Chelsea include Carlyle's House (under half a mile south-west) and Apsley House (1.1 miles north-east). Grand settings like these frequently have strict rules on caterers, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. If the day starts at Former Welsh Congregational Church, the roast can be ready when everyone gets back.
Here we cover the SW3, SW10, SW1X and SW1W postcode area, so your party can be anywhere in it. Whether your party is on Markham Square, Wellington Square and Tedworth Square or a nearby road, we’ll bring the roaster to you. Chelsea sits on or near the B302 and B304, which makes travel to your party easy.

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. At midsummer, it is light in Chelsea until about 9:20pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Send a picture of where the roaster could go.
- We check the space and quote.
- We cook for hours on site.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We clear up so you don’t have to.
How to prepare
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
How to get a price
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the party is and roughly how many. A picture of the cooking area helps. Use our quote form.

Planning the cooking spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- A spot well away from the house

- A word with the neighbours
Chelsea is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
