Wedding hog roast near Spitalfields
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, on china if you’d like. We’re frequently asked to cater late-night wedding food and wedding breakfasts, with spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken.
London weddings around Spitalfields 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. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Travel to Spitalfields
- The date and time of year
- How many people are eating
The main driver is numbers: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Rough numbers
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Use our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Spitalfields
Which station is closest to Spitalfields?
Spitalfields has its own station: London Liverpool Street station.
Can you cater after a service at Christ Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s included?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Do you cover Spitalfields?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Spitalfields and the rest of Greater London included. Send us the address for a quote.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
The roaster stays outdoors on level ground, and we agree the spot with your venue.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you are ready. At a December wedding in Spitalfields, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and which meal you’d like.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
- We clear away once everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
