How our party hog roast works in Ladywell
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We will help you choose. Typical bookings include christenings and engagement parties, with a vegan burger or sausage, crackling and coleslaw.
Planning a London party in Ladywell? A hog roast keeps you out of the kitchen, at home or a hall with a garden. A long roast means a word with the neighbours. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Allergies and dietary needs
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.

What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Working with your venue
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Planning a party in Ladywell
Ladywell is about 1 mile south-east of New Cross, in Greater London. We’re happy to travel to Ladywell for parties and the places nearby. Ladywell is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover.
A green space like Ladywell Fields is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, usually the council’s. No room at home? A club or hall near Ladywell with outdoor space often works.
For parties in SE13, SE6 and SE4, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and a serving time. Your party could be at a house on Veda Road, Roxley Road and Honley Road or the roads around them, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the roaster. For parties just outside Ladywell, we cover Lewisham (1 mile north-east), Crofton Park (1 mile west), Hither Green (1 mile east), Brockley (1 mile west) and Catford (1 mile south).

- Local schools include Prendergast Ladywell School (0.5 miles south-west) and Trinity Church of England School (1.1 miles east)
- Nearby, you’ll find The London & Rye pub (under half a mile south)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include Nunhead (1.9 miles north-west)
Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
