Slow-roasted pork in Greenwich

How our hog roast hire works in Greenwich

The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. We are frequently asked to cater clubhouse events and weddings and receptions, serving halloumi skewers, crackling and salads.

In Greenwich, the roaster might go in a garden, a church car park or a works yard. Let us know about the route in, including steps, narrow gates and parking for our vehicle. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

Hog roast hire around Greenwich

Greenwich is about 4 miles east of London, in Greater London. We are happy to travel to Greenwich for events and the places nearby. Greenwich is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover.

School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as Meridian Primary School, can book a hog roast stall. Churches such as St Mary's Church rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by usually does.

Wherever your event is in SE10, SE3 and SE8, we can bring the roaster to you. Local streets include Cade Road, Webb Road and Creek Road; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in.

What affects the price in Greenwich

Your quote depends on:

  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Distance from us
  • Time on site

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Getting an accurate quote

Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:

  • Allergies we should know about
  • A picture of the cooking area
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

If you are comparing hog roast caterers for Greenwich, ask each one exactly what’s included. We spell it out in ours. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

Looking after everyone

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:

  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
  • Find out who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs

On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.

We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.

Your questions about a hog roast in Greenwich

Can you cater after a service at St Mary's Church?

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 typically elsewhere. Send us the address.

Can you do a hog roast in Island Gardens?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.

Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.

Can you cater in Greenwich?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Greenwich and Greater London. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.

What happens in bad weather?

We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

What space does the roaster need?

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.

Do we need our own staff?

No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

What about coeliacs?

We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.

What comes off the roaster

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we will bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.

For event organisers in Greenwich

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

Full catering or machine hire?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which often makes it better value. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

Why book our hog roast in Greenwich

  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
  • Fresh carving at the serving station
  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it

See our pricing or the cost guide.

How it works

Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Late September evenings in Greenwich lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

  1. You share the when, where and how many.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
  4. The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
  5. We pack away and leave you to it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
