Party hog roast in Silvertown, carved to order

In Silvertown, a hog roast is a favourite for birthdays and garden parties: one roast, enough for a crowd. We serve and tidy up. We serve a vegan burger or sausage, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for summer parties in the garden and ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries.

Throwing a party in Silvertown? A hog roast keeps you out of the kitchen, in a garden, a yard or a hired hall with outdoor space. Warn the neighbours: it roasts for hours. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

FAQs for Silvertown

We’re gathering after a service at St Barnabas' Church: can you cater?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

What if our house in Silvertown has no side access?

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

Can you cater in Silvertown?

We do. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.

How big a hog will we need?

We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.

What happens after service?

Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.

Can we just hire the roaster?

Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.

Do you serve the food?

No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.

Do we need cover?

The roaster has its own cover; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.

Where the roaster can go in Silvertown

Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:

  • A level patio, lawn or driveway
  • Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches
  • Somewhere dry for guests to eat

As a London location, Silvertown is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Should I cook it myself?

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.

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.

What happens on the day

We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. At midsummer, it’s light in Silvertown until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
  2. You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
  3. We set up early and get the hog roasting.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve when you’re ready.

Preparing for the day

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Think about shelter for your guests
