Robertsbridge questions
Is Robertsbridge close to London?
About 43 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
Can you serve inside our office or hall?
The roaster stays outside under cover; serving can be indoors.
Do you need lighting?
After dark, the serving area and the path to it need lighting. Let us know what lighting the venue has.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
