A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, so food goes out straight from the roaster.

Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
