- The number of people
- The date and time of year
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Site access
The main driver is numbers: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Should I cook it myself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
