Wedding hog roast for Seven Kings
How our wedding hog roast works in Seven Kings
A hog roast gives your wedding a centrepiece: people gather round as the chef carves. It feels like an occasion. We serve crackling, halloumi skewers and new potatoes, and typical bookings are for relaxed, low-key weddings and home weddings.
In Seven Kings, venues set rules on outside caterers and gas cooking. Ask about a courtyard or garden, and we will work through it together. Timings are planned around your wedding, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Seven Kings
Can you do a hog roast in South Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
What’s the nearest station to Seven Kings?
Seven Kings has its own station: Seven Kings station.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
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 do evening food?
Yes. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
- A way in for the roaster
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
As a London location, Seven Kings 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’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

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