Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
We arrive early and set up at base, so the roast is ready by lunch.
Ask for gluten-free rolls.

Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.

A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
