Evening food at a Manor Park wedding often goes out just as the light fades: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

Common questions in Manor Park
What if our house in Manor Park has no side access?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in Loxford Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
With sides, it is a full wedding breakfast; for evening food, rolls are generally enough.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can we have a hog roast as the main meal?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, with our staff serving.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
