About our party hog roast in East Village
Plan where the roaster will go: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We will check it with you. On the menu are crackling, coleslaw and apple sauce, and we’re regularly asked to cater milestone birthdays and christenings.
Most parties in East Village are at home, and in London that means getting the roaster into the garden. If there is no side gate, tell us about rear access or a front garden. Send us a photo. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

How the day works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Sunset in East Village is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with takeaway pizzas, a hog roast is part of the party, not just the food. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

Hosting a hog roast party in East Village
East Village is about 1 mile north-west of Stratford, in Greater London. We bring a hog roast for your party to parties anywhere in East Village, given a suitable outdoor cooking area. East Village is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we cater.
Within reach of East Village are historic houses such as Sutton House (1.8 miles west) and Valentines Mansion (3.7 miles north-east). For most parties, a garden or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict catering rules. For party guests on the train, East Village has its own station, Stratford International station.
For parties in E15, E20 and E9, we just need to know where the roaster can cook. Whether your party is on Angel Lane, Major Road and Forbes Lane or anywhere nearby, we will bring the roaster to you. If your venue is just outside East Village, we also cover Temple Mills (1 mile north-west), Stratford (1 mile south-east), Maryland (1 mile south-east), Hackney Wick (1 mile south-west) and Holloway Down (1 mile north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover London (5 miles south-west), City of Westminster (7 miles west), Marylebone (6 miles west), Kensington (9 miles west), St Pancras (5 miles west) and Shoreditch (3 miles south-west).
A little further out are V&A East (under half a mile south-west) and County Borough of West Ham (0.7 miles south-east). Within reach you will find Tower Hill and Old Ford Island.
- Local schools include Colegrave Primary School (0.5 miles east) and Eton Manor Boys' Club (0.5 miles north-west)
- Local pubs include The Cow pub (under half a mile south)
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
As a London location, East Village 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 you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
What we serve
- Coleslaw
- Rotisserie chicken
- Crackling
- Salads
- Jacket potatoes
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Hog roast rolls
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Who books party hog roast in East Village?

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in East Village
Which station is closest to East Village?
Stratford International station, in East Village itself.
Can you cater after a service at St Eleutherius?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. They may want a roll.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Plain pork rolls go down well with children, with chicken as an alternative.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
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.
