A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Clear of ambulance and delivery access
- Somewhere for residents to eat comfortably
- Away from opening windows
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Questions from Lambs Green
How far is Lambs Green from London?
About 27 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you cater at venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.

Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Stuffing usually contains gluten
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Request thin slices
The roaster stays clear of busy paths and windows.
Serving on plates is frequently easier.

Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:

What we need to know

- Your date and serving time
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the event is
- Any venue rules
