A hog roast across SW20: what to know
SW20 covers everything from Wimbledon, Morden and New Malden to 1 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground.
Bushey Mead: Among the historic houses close to Bushey Mead are Southside House (0.7 miles north-west) and Nonsuch Mansion (3.5 miles south). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on outside caterers and gas cooking early. Churches such as Dundonald Church rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by usually does. Light matters for a long roast: around Bushey Mead, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
What a hog roast costs
Things that change the price:
- Access to the cooking area
- Plates or china
- The number of people
- Menu choices and extras
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
These are the details we need:
- Dietary requirements
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- What the outdoor space is like
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: send us your details through our quote form.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Before you choose a spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan

Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
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 don’t provide halal meat.
