What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Approval from the landlord or committee
- Flat ground outside the hall or house
- One contact on the day
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
