What we serve, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Where the roaster can go in Barnsbury
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
Barnsbury is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Add dietary questions to the invite
If the party runs late, we can hold the roast a little, so keep us posted.
Add roast potatoes for a festive plate.

How it works
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. A lunchtime Christmas party in Barnsbury is the only one in good daylight, as it is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

- You get a quote with the menu.
- We set up under cover in daylight.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We tidy up and leave.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Send final numbers in good time
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
