Wedding hog roast in Lisson Grove
Wedding hog roast in Lisson Grove, slow-roasted on site
The carving station becomes a focal point: guests gather, the chef carves and the crackling disappears fast. It feels like an occasion. We are frequently asked to cater second-day get-togethers and wedding breakfasts with sides, with carved roast pork, salads and crackling.
London weddings around Lisson Grove often mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a garden or a family home. The roaster needs an outdoor spot under cover, away from the building, so check with the venue early. 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.

Common questions in Lisson Grove
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Lisson Grove?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
What’s the nearest station to Lisson Grove?
Lisson Grove has its own station: London Marylebone station.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: use our quote form.
Can you cater in Lisson Grove?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Lisson Grove and Greater London. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Planning for dietary needs
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
Evening food usually goes out an hour or two after the first dance.
Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.

- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
