Wedding hog roast in Peckham, carved to order
A hog roast gives your wedding a centrepiece: people gather round as the chef carves. It’s food and a bit of theatre. We serve carved roast pork, rotisserie chicken and crackling, and we are frequently booked for marquee weddings and farm weddings.
London weddings around Peckham frequently mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a garden or a family home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, so check with the venue early. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Peckham
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Peckham?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you cater after a service at All Saints Church?
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. Tell us where you will gather.
Do you cover Peckham?
We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do venues allow outside hog roasts?
Check with the venue first: some welcome outside caterers, others do not. We’ll talk to them about the cooking spot.
Can we add a second roast?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken as a second option.
Do you do evening food?
Yes. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.

Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Power for lights in the evening
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
- A serving area close to where guests eat
Peckham is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
What we serve
- New potatoes
- Rotisserie chicken
- Crackling
- Spit-roast lamb
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Roast or jacket potatoes
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Hog roast rolls
- Salads
A closer look at the menu
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, and it’s carved the same way.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Give final numbers in good time
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Give your coordinator the final menu
You will not have to think about the food. We roast through the afternoon and carve at the agreed time.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, as an extra.
The process
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. At a December wedding in Peckham, it is dark by about 3:55pm, 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 fit timings around your running order.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
