A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. In Amberley, December daylight ends around 4:00pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- The home tells us the date, numbers and serving time.
- We confirm the spot with your manager and quote.
- On the day we set up outdoors and roast through the morning.
- We serve in the dining room or garden, as you prefer.
- We tidy up and leave calmly.
Before we arrive
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
