Slow-roasted pork in Temple Bar
Wedding hog roast in Temple Bar, carved to order
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t available. We serve carved roast pork, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and we’re frequently booked for weddings in a marquee and wedding breakfasts with sides.
For a wedding in Temple Bar, the venue’s rules decide where a hog roast can go. Ask about a courtyard or garden, and we’ll agree the details with them. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Why choose a hog roast in Temple Bar?
Next to other evening food, carving serves plenty of people fast. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Why us?
- Served at the time you choose
- Sides to make it a full meal
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Cooked on the day, low and slow

What affects the price in Temple Bar
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The number of people
- How long the roast and service take
- Season and day of the week
- Distance from us
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Details that help
When you enquire, please mention:
- Where the event is

Common questions in Temple Bar
We are gathering after a service at Temple Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Temple Bar?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Of course: lamb and pork together give guests a choice.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
We’ll plan quantities from your numbers, and we will confirm it in writing.
Organising for someone else?
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
We are on site for much of the day, working quietly in the background.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, as an extra.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Step-free access for our equipment
- Light near the carving station after dark
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
As a London location, Temple Bar 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
