How our corporate hog roast works in Daniel's Water

About the food
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, especially for staff who don’t eat pork.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, keeping the queue moving.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
