Questions from Coombe
Is Coombe too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Coombe from London?
Roughly 62 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can you work to our lunch time?
Give us your break time and numbers and we’ll make it work.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.
