About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
Let us know about changes: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
Add sides for a bigger lunch.
