About our wedding hog roast in Kingston Vale
We look after guests who do not eat pork: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat. Typical bookings include anniversary vow renewals and wedding breakfasts with sides, with carved roast pork, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes.
Couples in Kingston Vale frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, which many London venues cannot offer, so ask early. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a three-course plated meal, a hog roast is more relaxed and frequently better value. It still feels special. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
What you get with us
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Sides to make it a full meal

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.
