What else we do in Tingewick
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Ask us to label the vegetarian food
- Plates are easier for older guests than rolls
- Ask close family about dietary needs
- Give us numbers for the alternatives
We serve when people arrive, calmly and without fuss.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
How the day works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Summer evenings in Tingewick stay light until about 9:30pm, so people can spill into the garden.
- Contact us as soon as you have a date.
- We confirm the space.
- We set up and roast on the day.
- Our staff serve without fuss.
- We leave the venue tidy.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist.
Organising for someone else?
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
