Wedding hog roast in Wimbledon Chase, slow-roasted on site
We work with your venue on the cooking spot, timings and access well before the day, so on the day everything is in place. Typical bookings include intimate weddings and post-wedding gatherings, serving salads, rotisserie chicken and crackling.
Couples in Wimbledon Chase 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. The hog is roasted on site at your wedding, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

Wimbledon Chase questions
We are gathering after a service at St Mary's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Could you cook in Cannon Hill Common?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s included?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Do you do evening food?
Of course. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.
Can you cater in Wimbledon Chase?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Wimbledon Chase and Greater London. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
If your venue has an in-house caterer, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. Some venues charge a fee. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

Where the roaster can go in Wimbledon Chase
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
- Light near the carving station after dark
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
Wimbledon Chase is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: 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’ll advise.
From the roaster
- Rotisserie chicken
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- New potatoes
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Crackling
- Hog roast rolls

How the day works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. For a summer wedding in Wimbledon Chase, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means an evening hog roast is usually served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
Preparing for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
