What we serve, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, served in a roll with salads.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a staff barbecue, everyone gets to join in. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why Tide Mills hosts choose us
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Crackling for everyone who wants it

Tide Mills: your questions answered
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Which station is closest to Tide Mills?
Bishopstone (Sussex) station, about 0.6 miles east of the centre.
Can you feed everyone in a short break?
Yes. We time the roast to be ready and serve quickly. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
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.
Can it be more formal?
It can be as relaxed or polished as you like, with plates or china.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans

Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
If it is a themed open day, tell us.

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
