Party hog roast in Notting Hill
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Party hog roast near Notting Hill

Throwing a party in Notting Hill? A hog roast means no cooking for you, in a garden, a yard or a hired hall with outdoor space. Warn the neighbours: it roasts for hours.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Notting Hill
Can you do a hog roast in Holland Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What’s the nearest station to Notting Hill?
Shepherds Bush station, about 0.6 miles south-west of the centre.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.
Do we need our own staff?
You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.

Next to a barbecue, you are not stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and everyone eats together. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Step by step
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. Sunset in Notting Hill is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is normally in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:55pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Show us the garden or drive.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you are ready.
- We clear up so you do not have to.
Preparing for the day
