Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Light matters for a long roast: in Heads Hill, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, but by late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Getting ready for the day
