About our wedding hog roast in Dulwich
For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, with china available on request. We’re frequently asked to cater weddings in a marquee and late-night wedding food, with halloumi skewers, crackling and salads.
Couples in Dulwich frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. The roaster needs an outdoor spot under cover, away from the building, which many London venues can’t offer, so ask early. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
Here’s what affects the price:
- The journey to the venue
- Time on site
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The date and time of year
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Getting an accurate quote
These are the details we need:
- An estimate of numbers
- Dietary requirements
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The date and time of the event
It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
We serve and clear without fuss, so the party carries on around us.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, quoted separately.

Dulwich: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast in Dulwich Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What if our house in Dulwich has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Do we need extra food?
With sides, it is a full wedding breakfast; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Many couples do exactly that, with alternatives for non-pork eaters.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.

What happens on the day
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. At a December wedding in Dulwich, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
How to prepare
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Think about shelter for your guests
