Little London: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at Saint Stephen's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is Little London close to London?
Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
We bring cover for the roaster; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.

What else we do in Little London
What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

For planners, venues and organisers
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Think about children’s portions
A cooked roast holds for a while, so just let us know.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
The process
We work to your timings. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Sunset in Little London is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is normally in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 4:00pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
