Our hog roast service in Croydon
Croydon is a London borough with the scale of a city. The office towers around East Croydon station form one of the largest business districts outside central London, the trams link it to Wimbledon and Beckenham, and the suburbs spread south through Purley, Coulsdon and Sanderstead to the Surrey border.
That gives us two distinct kinds of booking. Weekdays bring staff parties and client events for firms in the town centre; weekends are about family celebrations and community events in the suburbs. We cook hog roasts, lamb roasts and BBQs on site, carve to order and bring every side.
We cater across Croydon as part of our hog roast catering in London and the wider South London area. For the full picture of how we work, see our our hog roast service page.
Where we cater in Croydon
Office events in Croydon town centre often use car parks, courtyards or nearby green space, and building rules on access and cooking come first. The suburbs — Purley, Coulsdon, Sanderstead, Selsdon, Addington and Shirley — have larger gardens and more driveways, which makes set-up easy.
Croydon's diverse communities mean a busy calendar of family, faith and community celebrations, and schools and sports clubs host summer fairs. Council parks such as Lloyd Park need permission for catered events. ULEZ applies, and the A23 and A22 give us good access from the south.

Not every event suits a whole pig. For Croydon gatherings where people want choice — office lunches, club days, parties with lots of children — our BBQ catering is often the better fit: burgers, sausages and chicken cooked to order, with vegetarian and vegan options on their own grill space.
For office lunches near East Croydon, a BBQ gives choice and speed — ideal for a tight service window.

Birthday party catering · Private party cateringWhat we cook
Pork hog roast
The classic. A whole pig roasts slowly for hours until the meat is tender and the skin has turned to crackling, then we carve it to order — into soft rolls with stuffing and apple sauce, or onto plates with salads and potatoes.
View our hog roast menuLamb roast
A whole lamb on the spit gives the same sense of occasion as a hog roast with a lighter, herby feel. Serve it in flatbreads with minted yoghurt, or plated with potatoes and gravy.
Lamb roast cateringBBQ options
Burgers, sausages and chicken for the meat-eaters, with halloumi, vegetable skewers and plant-based options cooked separately for everyone else.
BBQ packagesSides & salads
Most Croydon events pick two to four sides. Summer menus lean towards coleslaw, leaf salads, tomatoes and potato salad; evening and winter events tend to want fries, sweet potato fries or new potatoes. We bring the breads, rolls and sauces too.
Vegetarian, vegan & dietary options
Dietary needs are planned in from the start, not added at the end. Vegetarian and vegan dishes are cooked on separate equipment on request and clearly labelled, and allergen information is available for everything we serve. For guests with severe allergies, please talk to us before the event.
