Wedding hog roast in Northway
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Space well clear of tents and trees
- Power for lights in the evening
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee

How our wedding hog roast works in Northway
For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, on china if you’d like. Whether it is vow renewals and blessings and evening receptions, we can cook salads, halloumi skewers and carved roast pork for your guests.
For a smaller place like Northway, a garden or farm wedding is frequently the dream. We need level ground, cover and a way in. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Questions from Northway
Can you cater after a service at St Anthony of Padua?
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.
Is Northway close to London?
Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Looking after everyone
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
Evening food usually goes out an hour or two after the first dance.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.
