How our party hog roast works in Oakthorpe Park
A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We roast on site in Oakthorpe Park, then carve at the time you choose, so you are not stuck in the kitchen. We serve a vegan burger or sausage, jacket potatoes and crackling, and we are frequently booked for neighbourhood parties and leaving and retirement do’s.
Most parties in Oakthorpe Park are at home, and in London that means getting the roaster into the garden. If there’s no side gate, tell us about rear access or a front garden. A picture helps. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

FAQs for Oakthorpe Park
Can you cater after a service at St Michael-at-Bowes?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Could you cook in Broomfield Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
What about the neighbours?
Let them know in advance.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
What comes with the hog roast?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Whether you want china
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Numbers
- Distance from us
Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the event is
- Rough numbers
- Rules from the venue or landowner
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your party: use our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers
Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Is a hog roast right for your party?
Compared with cooking for everyone yourself, a catered hog roast gives you the day back. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why book with us
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Cooked on the day, low and slow

Where the roaster can go in Oakthorpe Park

- Neighbours warned about the smell
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive

Step by step

A summer party in Oakthorpe Park stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

- We check the date and the garden or drive, then send a quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve when you’re ready.
- Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.
