Common questions in Pratt's Bottom
What’s the nearest station to Pratt's Bottom?
Knockholt station, about 0.8 miles east of the centre.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
What will our facilities team need?
Let us know your site’s requirements, and we will tell you what we can send.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.
Who serves?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
