The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some residents will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Rotisserie chicken
For residents who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children normally like it too.
How it works
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Late-September sunset in Seven Dials is about 7:05pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.

Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Tell us about dietary needs in advance
- Request thin slices
We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
Organising for someone else?
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Season and day of the week
- The number of people
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Crockery choices
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups generally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and time of the event
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Roughly how many people
