How our wedding hog roast works in Canary Wharf
Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings, so on the day everything is in place. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and salads, and we’re regularly asked to cater blessings and renewals and weddings in a family garden.
For a wedding in Canary Wharf, the venue’s rules decide where a hog roast can go. A courtyard, garden or yard is ideal, and we will work through it together. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Questions from Canary Wharf
Can you do a hog roast in Sir John McDougall Gardens?

Canary Wharf has its own station: Canary Wharf station.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Lamb and chicken are both available as a second option.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
We will plan quantities from your numbers, and the quote lists everything.
What happens on the day
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. For a summer wedding in Canary Wharf, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means an evening hog roast is generally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
