Wedding hog roast in Cheapside
How our wedding hog roast works in Cheapside
We look after guests who don’t eat pork: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat. On the menu are carved roast pork, salads and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for vow renewals and blessings and wedding breakfasts with sides.
A wedding in a small place like Cheapside often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.

Planning the cooking spot

Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Cheapside questions
How far is Cheapside from London?
Roughly 24 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Cheapside too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Do you do evening food?
Yes, evening food is very popular. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
