Our hog roast service in East London
East London is where hog roasts meet warehouses. Former industrial buildings around Hackney Wick, Shoreditch and the Lea Valley now host launches, staff parties and weddings, and a whole pig turning in a yard outside suits them perfectly. Add the office towers of Canary Wharf, the regenerated areas around Stratford and the suburbs out to Romford and Upminster, and it's one of the most varied parts of London we cover.
We cater hog roasts, lamb roasts and BBQs across the east, cooking on site and serving from a staffed counter with all the sides and sauces. From a creative agency's summer party to a family christening in Walthamstow, we plan each job around the space and the access.
We cater across East London as part of our hog roast catering in London. For the full picture of how we work, see our hog roast catering service page.
Where we cater in East London
Industrial and warehouse event spaces are a big part of our East London work. They usually have a yard or loading area where we can cook, with food served inside — but it's worth checking whether the space allows gas and open flames, and what its load-in times are. Office events in Canary Wharf and the City fringe come with the usual building rules on loading and fire safety.
Further out, Walthamstow, Woodford, Wanstead, Chingford and Havering have more family homes with gardens, plus schools and sports clubs with fields. Victoria Park, the Olympic Park and the edge of Epping Forest are popular open spaces, but catered events on them need permission. ULEZ applies throughout.

BBQ catering in East London
Not every event suits a whole pig. For East London 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.
BBQ is a great fit for East London warehouse and yard events: quick to serve and easy to pair with a hog roast for bigger crowds.

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.
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
The sides make the meal. Choose from homemade coleslaw, mixed leaf salad, tomato and red onion salad, potato salad and pasta salad, plus fries, sweet potato fries or buttered new potatoes cooked on site. Fresh rolls, breads and a proper sauce table come as standard.
Vegetarian, vegan & dietary options
Most East London events have guests who don't eat pork, and many have vegetarians, vegans and people with allergies. We cook meat-free dishes separately when asked, label every dish, and can build a pork-free menu around lamb or the BBQ. Our allergen information explains what we can and can't guarantee.
