Care home hog roast for your care home event in Ewell
Staff thank-you lunches are another reason homes book us. We serve new potatoes, roast potatoes and halloumi skewers, and we are frequently booked for day centre get-togethers and themed days.
In Ewell, sheltered housing schemes and day centres usually have shared outdoor space, which suits a hog roast lunch. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count families and staff too
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Halal isn’t offered
A named contact in the home helps on the day.
Rotisserie chicken is an alternative to pork.
Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Next to the usual lunch, a hog roast brings the event to residents. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What you get with us

- Planned to your running order
- No surprises: everything in writing
