Common questions in Bradwell Abbey
Is Bradwell Abbey close to London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Could you cook in South Loughton Valley park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
What allergens are in the food?
We provide full allergen information for every dish. Stuffing generally contains gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available.
Step by step
We work to your timings. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. In Bradwell Abbey, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
