How the day works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. In Little Venice, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:55pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We clear up so you don’t have to.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

Common questions in Little Venice
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Little Venice?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Can you cater after a service at St Saviour'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. Send us the address.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can you work around our timings?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
What affects the price in Little Venice
Each price is built from:
- Numbers
- How long the roast and service take
- Whether you want china
- Which meats and sides you choose
The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What we need to know
For a quick, accurate price, tell us:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Roughly how many people
- What the outdoor space is like
Every party is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your party for a quote: fill in our quote form.
About the food
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A spot well away from the house
- Parking close to the house
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
Little Venice 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.
