Party hog roast in Welling, carved to order
Hosting a party means juggling everything at once. A hog roast takes the food off your list: we roast, carve, serve and clear. Typical bookings include garden parties and big family get-togethers, with apple sauce, coleslaw and a vegan burger or sausage.
Throwing a party in Welling? A hog roast means no cooking for you, in a garden, a yard or a hired hall with outdoor space. A long roast means a word with the neighbours.

A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a party buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved, and nothing sits out all afternoon. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why book our hog roast in Welling
- Sides to make it a full meal

Space, access and the venue
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
- A word with the neighbours
As a London location, Welling 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 will advise.

- You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- We carve and serve at the agreed time.
- We clear up and pack away.
How to prepare
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Find out who does not eat pork for the alternatives
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
Have a word with the neighbours first: the roast cooks for hours.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
FAQs for Welling
Can you do a hog roast in Danson Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Welling?
Welling station, about 0.5 miles north-west of the centre.
Can we cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Most people prefer us to cook so they can enjoy the party.
Do we need our own staff?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we will bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
