- The landowner’s or council’s agreement

Step by step
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. For an autumn event in Wroxall, sunset is around 7:10pm in late September, so evening trading needs lights.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about tight access
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
