The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, and alternatives for anyone who doesn’t eat pork. Popular choices include spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and we are often booked for wakes and memorial gatherings and Fêtes, fairs and shows.
Around St Ann's, most London bookings are in back gardens, yards, school grounds and car parks. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us whether there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use, and send us a photo. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.
