Popular choices include crackling, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater marquee receptions and wedding breakfasts.
Couples in Strand-on-the-Green 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.

FAQs for Strand-on-the-Green
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Strand-on-the-Green?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Which station is closest to Strand-on-the-Green?
Chiswick station, about 0.5 miles south-east of the centre.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Can we offer lamb too?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the hog.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.

How it works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. At midsummer, sunset in Strand-on-the-Green is about 9:20pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Distance from us
- How long the roast and service take
- How many people are eating
- Whether you want china
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
What to tell us
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- An estimate of numbers
- The address or postcode
- Your date and serving time
- Your menu choices
When you are weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. We spell it out in ours. For a quote, use our quote form.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Space well clear of tents and trees
- Lighting for evening service
- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
Strand-on-the-Green 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 you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
