Wedding hog roast in Castle Green, carved to order
For a relaxed wedding in Castle Green, a hog roast hits the right note: proper food, carved fresh, with plenty for everyone. We serve and tidy up, so you can enjoy it. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, new potatoes and crackling, and we are regularly asked to cater the day after the wedding and weddings in a family garden.
London weddings around Castle Green often mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a garden or a family home. The roaster needs an outdoor spot under cover, away from the building, which many London venues cannot offer, so ask early. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Questions from Castle Green
Can you do a hog roast in Mayesbrook Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What if our house in Castle Green has no side access?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Do we need our own staff?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
We cook outside, never inside the marquee.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
We are on site for much of the day, out of the way, by the cooking area.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.
Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you are a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children generally like it too.
How it works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. In Castle Green, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
