Wedding hog roast near North Finchley

Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan option. Halal meat is not available. For late-night wedding food and wedding breakfasts, we can cook new potatoes, spit-roast lamb and crackling and more.

London weddings around North Finchley 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, which many London venues cannot offer, so ask early. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Planners, venues and businesses

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.

Planning for dietary needs

You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:

  • Confirm final numbers a week or so before
  • Note which guests don’t eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
  • Give your coordinator the final menu

We’ll be at the venue for most of the day, out of the way, by the cooking area.

Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.

  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Where the event is

Step by step

We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. For a summer wedding in North Finchley, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
  3. We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
  4. We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.

Getting ready for the day

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Where the roaster can go in North Finchley

The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
  • Clear space away from the marquee and any branches

As a London location, North Finchley is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
