What affects the price in Newchapel
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The number of people
- How long the roast and service take
- Travel to Newchapel
- Season and day of the week
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

You know your residents best, so we provide full allergen information and work to your plan. We’re frequently asked to cater residents’ themed days and anniversaries of the home, serving new potatoes, roast potatoes and halloumi skewers.

A hog roast compared with other options

Planning for 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
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Request thin slices
We clear away quietly.
Ask about china.
