Taplow station, about 1.7 miles south of the centre.
Can visitors eat too?
Many homes make it a family day.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
