Hosting a hog roast party in Waddon
Waddon is about 1 mile west of Croydon, in Greater London. Wherever your party is in Waddon, we can bring the roaster, as long as there’s an outdoor spot to cook. Waddon is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover. Our bookings stretch from Waddon to London (about 9 miles away).
If your garden is too small, local halls and clubs near Waddon can be an alternative, as long as there’s outdoor space for the roaster. If you had Duppas Hill in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we cannot simply set up a roaster in a public park.
For parties in CR0, CR2 and SM6, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many guests. Whether your party is on Abbey Road, Alton Road and Epsom Road or a nearby road, we can set up and roast there. Neighbouring places where we cater parties include Old Town (1 mile north-east), Bandonhill (1 mile west), Beddington (1 mile north-west), Russell Hill (1 mile south-west) and Roundshaw (1 mile south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover London (9 miles north), City of Westminster (11 miles north), Marylebone (11 miles north), Kensington (10 miles north), St Pancras (11 miles north) and Shoreditch (11 miles north).
A little further out are County Borough of Croydon (0.8 miles north-east) and Croydon Airport Visitor Centre (0.6 miles south-west). The countryside around Waddon includes Duppas Hill and Roundshaw Downs.
- Schools near Waddon include St Andrew's CofE School (within half a mile north) and Rutherford School (1.4 miles east)
- Local pubs include The Waddon Hotel (under half a mile north-west)
Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

Working with your venue
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Let us know roughly how many children
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
Why choose a hog roast in Waddon?
Next to a barbecue, you’re not stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and everyone eats together. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A level patio, lawn or driveway
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- Parking close to the house
As a London location, Waddon is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Common questions in Waddon
Could you cook in Duppas Hill?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St George?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Will a hog roast fit in our garden?
Most gardens can work, and a way to wheel the equipment through. Send us a picture.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
We bring cover for the roaster; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.

How the day works
On the day, 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. In Waddon, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:55pm, need lights by the roaster.
