How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In late May, sunset in Wolverton is about 8:55pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:25pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.

- We confirm the pitch and send a price.

Do you come out to small places like Wolverton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: use our quote form.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
