Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The journey to the venue

Who serves?
You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
Can you work to the call sheet?

How the day works
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. In December, daylight in Halton ends around 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Think about shelter for your crew
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
