About our party hog roast in Kenton
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We will check it with you. Typical bookings include close and cul-de-sac parties and ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries, with crackling, hog roast rolls and jacket potatoes.
Most parties in Kenton 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. Send us a picture. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.

Within reach of Kenton are historic houses such as Headstone Manor (2.2 miles west) and Northolt Manor (3.9 miles south-west).

Streets in the area include Retreat Close, Kenton Road and Woodgrange Avenue, and a party on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster.

Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
Have a word with the neighbours first: roasting takes hours and the smell travels.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll, just as they should.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Kenton questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Kenton?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
What’s the nearest station to Kenton?
Kenton station, about 0.5 miles south-west of the centre.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?
Tell us about the garden and the access, and we will tell you if it works.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will talk it through when we quote.

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 will agree the spot with you beforehand. A summer party in Kenton 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.
- It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
- We check the date and the garden or drive, then send a quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- We carve and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack away and leave the garden tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Send final numbers in good time
- Name a contact for the day

Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
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.

- Season and day of the week

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
