About our party hog roast in Dartmouth Park
Birthdays, christenings and summer parties in Dartmouth Park suit a hog roast: one roast, enough for a crowd. We serve and tidy up. For milestone birthdays and engagement parties, we can cook apple sauce, hog roast rolls and jacket potatoes for your guests.
In Dartmouth Park, a party at home is the usual choice, and access is the question. With no side passage, a rear gate or front garden may work. A photo helps. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Planning a party in Dartmouth Park
Dartmouth Park is about 2 miles east of Hampstead, in Greater London. A hog roast suits parties around Dartmouth Park, whatever the venue. Dartmouth Park is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover.
Christenings and naming days frequently start at a local church such as Church of St Mary Brookfield, with a hog roast at home or in a hall afterwards. If guests are coming by rail, Gospel Oak station is about 0.5 miles away.
Parties anywhere in NW5, N19 and N7 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster and roughly how many guests.

FAQs for Dartmouth Park
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary Brookfield?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Could you cook in Whittington Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
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.
What’s included?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
