Questions from Holland Park
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Holland Park?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can you do a hog roast in Kensington Palace Green?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. You will get allergen details for everything.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Generally, yes, so we get the amounts right.
Party hog roast near Holland Park
If you’d rather cook yourself, DIY machine hire is an option. Most hosts prefer us to do it, so they can enjoy the party. We serve rotisserie chicken, a vegan burger or sausage and apple sauce, and typical bookings are for family reunions and neighbourhood parties.
Throwing a party in Holland Park? A hog roast keeps you out of the kitchen, in a garden, a yard or a hired hall with outdoor space. Warn the neighbours: it roasts for hours. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Step by step
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. A summer party in Holland Park stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

What you get with us
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Timed around your day
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Our staff serve and clear
Read how we price and what a hog roast costs.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Think about children’s portions
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us if timings change.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

- Parking close to the house
- Neighbours warned about the smell
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
Holland Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
