About hog roast hire in W1U

We’re frequently asked to cater garden parties and barbecues and birthdays and anniversaries, serving halloumi skewers, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb.
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too.

- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.

A hog roast across W1U: what to know
From Marylebone, Mayfair and Paddington to 0 villages and hamlets, bookings across W1U range from town gardens to farmyards, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground.
Marylebone: Parks such as St Anne's Churchyard generally need permission from the council or landowner for any cooking, so check first. For a christening or gathering after a service at a church such as Russian chapel on Welbeck Street, the roaster can be set up at a hall or home nearby. Planning an evening hog roast in Marylebone? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.
How we price a hog roast
The biggest factors are:
- Site access
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Crockery choices
- How many people are eating
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
Prefer to cook yourself? Ask about DIY machine hire.
Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
