Organising for someone else?
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
Diets, allergies and alternatives

- Count crew needing an alternative
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet

About the food
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, carved to order at the serving station, frequently with mint sauce.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- Access to the cooking area
- Distance from us
- How many people are eating
- Crockery choices
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
