Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Site access
- How many people are eating
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

What happens on the day
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In Stone, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- We start with the date, numbers of residents, staff and visitors, and the time.
- We confirm the spot with your manager and quote.
- We arrive early and start the roast.
- We carve and serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
- We tidy up and leave calmly.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
