Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Town Row
At a Christmas fair or lights switch-on in Town Row, a hog roast draws a queue: hot food in the hand on a cold evening. We’re often asked to cater year-end thank-yous and society Christmas socials, with roast turkey, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers.
Near Town Row, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Planning the cooking spot
