Diets, allergies and alternatives

Some residents will not eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Request thin slices
  • Tell us who does not eat pork
  • Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
  • Request gluten-free rolls

We arrive early and set up outdoors, following your sign-in and safety rules.

Ask about china.

What affects the price in Collier Row

Each price is built from:

  • How many people are eating
  • Menu choices and extras
  • How long the roast and service take
  • Access to the cooking area

For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Details that help

Here’s what we’ll ask:

  • Any venue rules
  • Your menu choices
  • Rough numbers
  • Allergies we should know about

A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Fill in our quote form.

Working with your venue

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.

If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.

About the food

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.

Perfect for your care home event in Collier Row

We fit in with your day.

Step by step

We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. In Collier Row, December daylight ends around 3:50pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.

  1. The home tells us the date and numbers.
  2. We agree the cooking spot and quote.
  3. We roast through the morning.
  4. We carve and serve where you choose.
  5. We clear away quietly.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact for the day
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
