About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
Let us know about changes: we can hold the roast for a short time.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
