Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, in a roll, with salad on the side.

Planning for dietary needs

Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
  • Label alternatives clearly
  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
  • Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken

A cooked roast holds for a while, so keep us posted.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Full catering or machine hire?
