Party hog roast in Romford, carved to order
A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We roast on site in Romford, then carve at the time you choose, so you can enjoy your own party. Whether it’s christenings and naming days and engagement parties, we can cook apple sauce, rotisserie chicken and coleslaw for your guests.
In Romford, a party at home is the usual choice, and access is the question. If there’s no side gate, tell us about rear access or a front garden. A photo helps. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
A cooked roast holds for a while, so just let us know.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Season and day of the week
- The number of people
- The journey to the venue
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Getting an accurate quote
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Any venue rules
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- An estimate of numbers
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Use our quote form.
Romford questions
Which station is closest to Romford?
Romford station, in Romford itself.
We’re gathering after a service at Parish Church of St Edward the Confessor: can you cater?
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 normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
What about the neighbours?
Let them know in advance.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How it works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. Evening parties in Romford need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.
- It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
- We check the space and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours ahead and start the roast under cover.
- When it is time to eat, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear up and pack away.
How to prepare
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
