About our party hog roast in Wapping

How we price a hog roast for your party
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Crockery choices
- Season and day of the week
- Time on site
- The journey to the venue
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Getting an accurate quote
These are the details we need:
- A picture of the cooking area
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rough numbers
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

Before you choose a spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- A level patio, lawn or driveway
- A heads-up for next door
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
As a London location, Wapping 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 you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
