Party hog roast in De Beauvoir Town, carved to order
Party food needs to be easy to eat, and pork rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling are just that. Chicken and vegetarian options keep everyone happy. For christenings and naming days and family reunions, we can cook a vegan burger or sausage, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce for your guests.
Most parties in De Beauvoir Town are at home, and in London that means getting the roaster into the garden. With no side passage, a rear gate or front garden may work. A picture helps. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
As a London location, De Beauvoir Town is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

De Beauvoir Town questions
Can you do a hog roast in Shoreditch Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in De Beauvoir Town?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
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’ll know our arrival time in advance.
What comes with the hog roast?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can you cater in De Beauvoir Town?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including De Beauvoir Town and Greater London. Send us the address for a quote.

Working with your venue
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
Warn the neighbours: roasting takes hours and the smell travels.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
