A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some staff will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Rotisserie chicken
For staff who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children generally like it too.
Before you choose a spot
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- Approval from facilities for gas equipment
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- A contact on site
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How the day works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. For a staff lunch in Ewhurst, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check site access and send a price.
- On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- We pack away and leave the site as we found it.
Before we arrive
