Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Find out how many do not eat pork, for the alternatives
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
We follow your site’s sign-in and safety rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.
If it’s a themed open day, tell us and we’ll fit in.
