How far is Nyetimber from London?

We’re gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Thomas A Becket: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
Do you provide china?

Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
