How our party hog roast works in Greenhill
If you’d rather cook yourself, DIY machine hire is an option. Most people choose the catered option, so they can enjoy the party. We are often asked to cater anniversary parties and family reunions, serving a vegan burger or sausage, jacket potatoes and rotisserie chicken.
Most parties in Greenhill 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 photo helps. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

How we price a hog roast for your party
Each price is built from:

- Site access
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Season and day of the week
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

Common questions in Greenhill
Which station is closest to Greenhill?
Greenhill has its own station: Hampstead Heath station.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Greenhill?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: roasting takes hours. Some hosts invite them over for a roll.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
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.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.

Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Parking close to the house
- A spot well away from the house
- A level patio, lawn or driveway
As a London location, Greenhill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

How it works

Evening parties in Greenhill need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it is around 7:05pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.

- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We clear the serving area and go.
