About the food
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.

Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Stuffing normally contains gluten.

- Count families and staff too
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.

- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
