How our wedding hog roast works in Tufnell Park
A wedding hog roast can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, and our chef carves on cue. On the menu are halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and spit-roast lamb, and we are often booked for late-night wedding food and intimate weddings.
Couples in Tufnell Park frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. The roaster needs an outdoor spot under cover, away from the building, so check with the venue early. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Common questions in Tufnell Park
What’s the nearest station to Tufnell Park?
The closest is Upper Holloway station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Benet and All Saints?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
Can we offer lamb too?
Lamb and chicken are both available as a second option.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Many do, but some only allow approved caterers or charge a fee. Check with them first, and we will liaise with them.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
What happens on the day
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your wedding. Evening food at a Tufnell Park wedding often goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- The date and time of year
- Crockery choices
- Numbers
- Distance from us
Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address for an accurate figure.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Rough numbers
- The date and time of the event
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Every wedding is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your wedding for a quote: fill in our quote form.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
- Give your coordinator the final menu
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We roast through the afternoon and carve at the agreed time.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for any coeliac guests.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast feeds everyone at once from one roast without batches coming off a grill. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why us?
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
