Wedding hog roast for Loxford
Loxford: your questions answered
We’re gathering after a service at St Luke's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast in Loxford Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Check with the venue first: some welcome outside caterers, others don’t. We will talk to them about the cooking spot.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Do you do evening food?
Yes, evening food is very popular. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
About our wedding hog roast in Loxford
A hog roast is made for marquee, barn and garden weddings near Loxford. We cook outside, under cover, and the food is served in the marquee or barn. For late-night wedding food and weddings in a family garden, we’ll put together a menu of carved roast pork, new potatoes and halloumi skewers.
London weddings around Loxford 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. The hog is roasted on site at your wedding, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

Step by step
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. At a December wedding in Loxford, it is dark by about 3:50pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
How to prepare
- Let us know about tight access
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Planners, venues and businesses
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
