On the menu are halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken, and we’re regularly asked to cater village fêtes and school fairs and sports days.
For a village fête or field event near Fritwell, we can cook in a field. Tell us about the ground and the way in. Our chef carves in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.
