Wedding hog roast for South Bermondsey
About our wedding hog roast in South Bermondsey
A hog roast is made for marquee, barn and garden weddings near South Bermondsey. The roaster cooks outside under cover, and serve inside where the venue allows. On the menu are crackling, spit-roast lamb and halloumi skewers, and we are regularly asked to cater wedding breakfasts with sides and rustic barn receptions.
Couples in South Bermondsey frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, which many London venues cannot offer, so ask early. Timings are planned around your wedding, working back from when you want to eat.

Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds all your guests together. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Time on site
- Plates or china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What we need to know
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Your date and serving time
- The venue or postcode
- A picture of the cooking area
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the wedding is and roughly how many. A picture of the cooking area helps. Send us your details through our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
How it works
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. At a December wedding in South Bermondsey, 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.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.

Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
For evening food, we carve as the dancing gets going, timed with you in advance.
Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.
