How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. For an autumn event in Over Wallop, sunset is around 7:10pm in late September, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Send final numbers in good time

Prices and what affects them
We do not use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:
- Distance from us
- Access to the cooking area
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Plates or china
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Details that help
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- The venue or postcode
- Dietary requirements
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Your menu choices
It’s easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
- Show allergens at the stall
- Signpost the stall clearly
We work to your event plan, including vehicle times and pitch layout.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who don’t eat pork.

Do you trade at school fairs around Over Wallop?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.

We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
