No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan residents can have a vegan burger or sausage, so nobody misses out.
Prices and what affects them
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Time on site
