- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
If the schedule moves, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we will fit in.
