Slow-roasted pork in Waddon
How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. In Waddon, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, so evening food is often carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
- We cook through the day and serve right on cue.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.

How our wedding hog roast works in Waddon
A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: it can be held for a while once cooked, so a long speech won’t ruin the food. For marquee receptions and evening food after the first dance, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, spit-roast lamb and carved roast pork for your guests.
Couples in Waddon often hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, which many London venues can’t offer, so ask early. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
- Note which guests do not eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
We serve and clear without fuss, and leave you to celebrate.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for any coeliac guests.

- Power for lights in the evening
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
- Space well clear of tents and trees
As a London location, Waddon is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
