About our wedding hog roast in South Lambeth

Whether it is the day after the wedding and vow renewals and blessings, we can cook halloumi skewers, carved roast pork and new potatoes and more.

What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A serving area close to where guests eat
- Light near the carving station after dark
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
As a London location, South Lambeth is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

South Lambeth questions
We’re gathering after a service at St Stephen's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Which station is closest to South Lambeth?

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
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.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

What affects the price in South Lambeth
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Distance from us
- Access to the cooking area
- The number of people
- Time on site
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
What we need to know
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many people
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Your date and serving time
It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
