Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

Common questions in Roser's Cross
Could you cook in Passingworth Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Roser's Cross?
The closest is Buxted station, roughly 3.7 miles away.
Do we need our own staff?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Where on site can you cook?
Anywhere suitable and approved, outdoors and under cover.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
