Salford: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Salford?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to Salford?
Kingham station, about 3.9 miles south-west of the centre.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
How do we prepare?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can visitors eat too?
It works well as a day with families.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.

- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
