How our party hog roast works in Cowley
For a relaxed party, you can hire the machine and cook it yourself. Most people choose the catered option, and spend time with their guests. For christenings and big family get-togethers, we will put together a menu of coleslaw, jacket potatoes and hog roast rolls.

The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children generally like it too.
How it works
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can get on with your party. A summer party in Cowley stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We tidy up and pack away.
How to prepare

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Cowley
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Laurence: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Cowley?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to ordering takeaway, a hog roast is part of the party, not just the food. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book our hog roast in Cowley
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
