Party hog roast in St Giles, carved to order
For a relaxed party, you can hire the machine and cook it yourself. Most people choose the catered option, so they can enjoy the party. We’re frequently asked to cater christenings and naming days and summer parties in the garden, serving jacket potatoes, a vegan burger or sausage and crackling.
In St Giles, a party at home is the usual choice, and access is the question. If there is no side gate, tell us about rear access or a front garden. A photo helps. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
How the day works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Autumn parties in St Giles get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. Plan lights for the path and the food.

FAQs for St Giles
Could you cook in St Anne's Churchyard?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
We are gathering after a service at Soho Baptist Chapel: 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 typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Do children like hog roasts?
Most children like pork in a soft roll, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.
Can you cater in St Giles?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?
Most gardens can work, and a way to wheel the equipment through. Send us a picture.
