Care settings across West Berkshire

Care homes across West Berkshire range from large homes in Newbury, Thatcham and Burghfield Common to smaller homes in its villages. At every home, we cook clear of ambulance access. Parts of West Berkshire are within a few miles of the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, where some venues have extra rules about cooking and vehicles.

Newbury: Old photos of Audrey's Meadow can spark conversation during a hog roast day. A care home summer fair, perhaps with a church like St Nicolas Church, is a good occasion for a hog roast. For a summer hog roast day in Newbury, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden events easy. In December, with dark by about 4:00pm, lunchtime is best.

The menu, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.

Roast pork

The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.

For event organisers in West Berkshire

Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Space, access and the venue

Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:

Sign-off from management
Someone to meet us
A spot that keeps access clear

Diets, allergies and alternatives

We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
