Wedding hog roast near Walworth
The carving station becomes a focal point: people gather round as the chef carves. It is food and a bit of theatre. For marquee receptions and second-day get-togethers, we can cook halloumi skewers, crackling and rotisserie chicken for your guests.
London weddings around Walworth 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, which many London venues cannot offer, so ask early. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Common questions in Walworth
Can you do a hog roast in Nursery Row Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
We are gathering after a service at Lady Margaret Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?
We cook outside, never inside the marquee, and we agree the spot with your venue.
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 work with them on the details.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we’ll check.
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
Your quote depends on:
- Access to the cooking area
- Crockery choices
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Dietary requirements
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Not sure how many to cater for? Give us your best estimate and we will quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.

Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
