About our wedding hog roast in Farringdon
A wedding hog roast can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the time you’ve set. Whether it is weddings in a family garden and weddings in a marquee, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, carved roast pork and crackling.
Couples in Farringdon 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 cannot offer, so ask early. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
We serve and clear without fuss, so the party carries on around us.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.

Questions from Farringdon
Could you cook in Barbican Conservatory?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Farringdon?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
