Sharnal Street questions
Do you come out to small places like Sharnal Street?

What’s the nearest station to Sharnal Street?
Gillingham (Kent) station, about 3.9 miles south of the centre.
Can you set up at the unit base?
At base, on level ground. We’ll agree it with your location manager.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can you do gluten-free?

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
Step by step
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Because the roast starts early, and in December Sharnal Street is dark by about 3:50pm, so we may set up under lights.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- We check access to base and quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after service.
How to prepare
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
