About our wedding hog roast in West Heath
A hog roast suits relaxed weddings in West Heath: proper food, carved fresh, with plenty for everyone. We serve and tidy up, so you can enjoy it. On the menu are carved roast pork, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for anniversary vow renewals and marquee receptions.
London weddings around West Heath often 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, so check with the venue early. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
As a London location, West Heath 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 you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in West Heath
What’s the nearest station to West Heath?
Abbey Wood station, about 1 mile north of the centre.
We’re gathering after a service at St Andrew's: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
It works well as a relaxed main meal, with alternatives for non-pork eaters.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
Outside, under its own cover, a safe distance from the marquee. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
Why choose a hog roast in West Heath?
Next to a formal three-course meal, a hog roast wedding breakfast is relaxed and generally costs less per head. It still feels special. The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why us?
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- An itemised quote
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests

Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What happens on the day
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. At midsummer, sunset in West Heath is about 9:20pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
