Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Laleham
Fridays in December go first, so ask early. Whether it’s work Christmas parties and club and society Christmas parties, we can cook apple sauce, roast turkey and hog roast rolls.
For a Christmas get-together near Laleham, hot rolls from the roaster go down well on a dark December evening. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
