Marylebone: Parks such as St Anne's Churchyard usually need permission from the council or landowner for any cooking, so check first.

By late September, sunset in Marylebone is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Is a hog roast right for you?
A hog roast has one downside: it is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too.

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
Expect us to be on site for much of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.
Planning the cooking spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
Your questions about a hog roast in W1T
Do you serve the crackling?
It is: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
What happens when we hire a hog roast?
You choose the date, the menu and the serving time; we do the rest. All we need is a place to cook outdoors.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
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’ll check it with you before booking.
