A hog roast near Walthamstow
How it works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. In Walthamstow, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so an early-evening carve is typically in daylight. After about 3:50pm in December, we need light to carve.
- You tell us the date, your address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve when you’re ready.
- We clear up and pack away.
How to prepare
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Give us a contact number for the day

FAQs for Walthamstow
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Michael and All Angels: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Walthamstow?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
Not for the cooking, but plan somewhere dry for guests.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Most children like pork in a soft roll, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat
- A word with the neighbours
As a London location, Walthamstow 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Each price is built from:
- How long the roast and service take
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The journey to the venue

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
