Wedding hog roast for Avery Hill
Wedding hog roast near Avery Hill
We look after guests who do not eat pork: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat. Popular choices include carved roast pork, salads and new potatoes, and we are regularly asked to cater farm weddings and weddings in a family garden.
London weddings around Avery Hill often mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a garden or a family home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, which many London venues can’t offer, so ask early. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Common questions in Avery Hill
Can you cater after a service at Church of Holy Trinity?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast in Shoulder of Mutton Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you cover Avery Hill?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
A hog roast compared with other options
If your venue has an in-house caterer, check whether you can bring in a hog roast. There may be a fee. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Why book with us
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Carved to order by a chef
- Served at the time you choose
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
