Common questions in Golden Cross
Do you come out to small places like Golden Cross?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Which station is closest to Golden Cross?
The closest is Pevensey & Westham station, roughly 4.2 miles away.
Do you do Christmas fairs?
We do. Hot rolls on a cold evening sell well.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Is lighting needed?
After dark, the serving area and the path to it need lighting. Let us know what lighting the venue has.
Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?
Yes, roast turkey is available for Christmas events, as well as the hog.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Roast turkey
At Christmas, add roast turkey alongside the hog, carved to order for a festive feel.
Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Looking after everyone
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Label alternatives clearly
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
China crockery is available on request.
