- The journey to the venue
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

Care home hog roast for your care home event in Horam
We roast outdoors under cover in the garden or car park, well away from ambulance routes. On the menu are roast potatoes, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for families’ days and summer fêtes.
Rural homes around Horam may have plenty of outdoor space, perfect for residents to sit out while the hog roasts. The carving happens right in front of your residents, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
