How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. Daytime open days in Marden's Hill are rarely affected by light, but in December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so late events need lighting.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- You get a check on the date and the site, and a quote.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some staff will not eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Add a dietary question to the sign-up
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, for the alternatives
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, then roast through the morning.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
