For event organisers in Charlbury
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.

The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Winter afternoons in Charlbury are short, with sunset at about 3:55pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- The home tells us the date, numbers and serving time.
- We agree the cooking spot, clear of emergency access, 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 clear away quietly and leave the grounds tidy.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Where the roaster can go in Charlbury
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Somewhere for residents to eat comfortably
- Sign-off from management
- Away from opening windows
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
What we serve
- Roast pork, carved
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Salads
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Roast potatoes
- New potatoes

Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
- Count families and staff too
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
Roast or new potatoes and apple sauce make it a full meal.
