Which station is closest to Brompton?
London Victoria station, about 0.8 miles east of the centre.
Could you cook in Burton’s Court?

We cater across Greater London. Ask for a quote.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
What’s included?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Is our garden big enough?
Access and clearance matter more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
About our hog roast hire in Brompton
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, for hours, under a gazebo outside. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. Popular choices include new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and crackling, and we are frequently booked for staff days and open days and clubhouse events.
Gardens in Brompton tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so we look for a spot well away from fences, sheds and windows. Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours. 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.

What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Travel to Brompton
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Access to the cooking area
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
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, which is built into the price.
What to tell us
When you enquire, please mention:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Roughly how many people
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Allergies we should know about
Send us the date, the address or SW3 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds everyone at once, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. Our guide compares the two. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why us?
- Our staff serve and clear
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- A clear quote with everything listed

The menu, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which suits bigger events.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll, just as they should.
Looking after everyone
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
