FAQs for Tortington
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you roast near the sea around Tortington?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Can you carve thinly?
We can carve thinly and serve on plates with potatoes and apple sauce.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can visitors eat too?
It works well as a day with families; just tell us total numbers.

- Clear of ambulance and delivery access
