Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, for the alternatives
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
We set up on the agreed spot, often first thing, and the roast cooks through the morning.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we’ll fit in.

The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Evening staff events in North Halling need light after sunset: about 9:20pm in June, 7:00pm in late September and 3:50pm in December.
