About our party hog roast in Finsbury Park
Rolls are easy for party guests to eat standing up, and pork rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling are just that. Chicken and vegetarian options keep everyone happy. We’re frequently asked to cater garden parties and big family get-togethers, serving apple sauce, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls.
In Finsbury Park, a party at home is the usual choice, and access is the question. If there is no side gate, tell us about rear access or a front garden. A photo helps. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Full catering or machine hire?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Common questions in Finsbury Park
We’re gathering after a service at St John the Evangelist: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Could you cook in Stationers Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Do we need cover?
We cover the cooking area, but a gazebo or indoor space for guests is a good backup.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
