About our party hog roast in Mile End

Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a hog roast in the garden fits the bill. Your guests will smell it from the street. We’re frequently asked to cater neighbourhood parties and milestone birthdays, serving apple sauce, crackling and rotisserie chicken.

In Mile End, a party at home is the usual choice, and access is the question. With no side passage, a rear gate or front garden may work. A photo helps. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve.

About the food

Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.

Stuffing and apple sauce

Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Mile End

Can you do a hog roast in Mile End Park?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Mile End?

Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.

What if it rains?

We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?

Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.

Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?

Most children like pork in a soft roll, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.

What about coeliacs?

We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.

How long does the roast need?

It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.

What comes with the hog roast?

The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.

The process

We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can get on with your party. In Mile End, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm 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.

  1. Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
  2. We check the garden or drive and quote.
  3. We arrive early and get the roast going.
  4. At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
  5. We tidy up and pack away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Planning a party in Mile End

Mile End is about 2 miles east of Whitechapel, in Greater London. We cater parties of every size in Mile End. Mile End is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover.

A green space like Mile End Park is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, normally the council’s. A christening at Holy Trinity Church followed by a hog roast at home is a simple, popular plan.

Wherever your party is in E3, E1 and E14, we can roast on site for your guests. Whether your party is on Bow Road, Bale Road and Toby Lane or a nearby road, we’ll bring the roaster to you. Main roads around Mile End include the A1205, so getting the roaster to your party is simple. If your venue is just outside Mile End, we also cover Bow (1 mile north), Bow Common (1 mile south-east), Bromley (1 mile east), Limehouse (1 mile south) and Donnybrook Quarter (1 mile north). Further out, we also cater in London (3 miles south-west), City of Westminster (5 miles west), Marylebone (5 miles west), Kensington (8 miles west), St Pancras (4 miles west) and Walthamstow (4 miles north).

A little further out are Westfield Stratford City (1.7 miles north-east) and Tower of London (2.2 miles south-west). Within reach you will find Old Ford Island and Tower Hill.

  • Nearby schools include Malmesbury Primary School (within half a mile north) and Central Foundation Girls' School (within half a mile north-east)
  • Nearby, you will find Lord Tredegar Public House (less than half a mile north)
  • Other local spots include Holy Trinity (0.7 miles west)

How we price a hog roast for your party

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Season and day of the week
  • How long the roast and service take
  • Access to the cooking area

Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

For a quick, accurate price, tell us:

  • Your date and serving time
  • The address or postcode
  • Rough numbers
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo

Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.

Why choose a hog roast in Mile End?

Next to doing it all yourself, you get to enjoy the party. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Why book with us

  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow
  • An itemised quote

For planners, venues and organisers

If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Find out who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
  • Think about children’s portions
  • Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed

At food time, we carve and serve, then clear up the serving area.

Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
