Questions from Martins Heron
How far is Martins Heron from London?
About 28 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
We’re gathering after a service at St Paul: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, and our staff serve your guests.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Before you choose a spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
- Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, and it is carved the same way.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

We’ll liaise with your venue coordinator, for access and timings.
