How the day works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. Lunchtime bookings in Upper Arncott are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Start with the date, site and numbers.
- We check with facilities and quote.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Service is fast once we carve.
- We clear up afterwards.
Before we arrive
