Wedding hog roast in Gunnersbury, carved to order
Wedding timings shift, and a slow roast copes well: a cooked roast holds for a while, so a long speech will not ruin the food. Whether it’s vow renewals and blessings and the main wedding meal, we can cook spit-roast lamb, carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken.
For a wedding in Gunnersbury, the venue’s rules decide where a hog roast can go. A courtyard, garden or yard is ideal, and we will agree the details with them. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Gunnersbury questions
Could you cook in Turnham Green?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Gunnersbury?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Do you cover Gunnersbury?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Gunnersbury and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
Can we have a hog roast as the main meal?
Many couples do exactly that, with alternatives for non-pork eaters.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
Outside, under its own cover, a safe distance from the marquee. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can you work around our timings?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Next to a wedding barbecue, a hog roast feeds everyone at once from one roast without batches coming off a grill. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- Lighting for evening service
- Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
Gunnersbury is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Should I cook it myself?

Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
Running late? A slow roast can wait a little. Your coordinator can keep us posted.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, quoted separately.
