Ashurst Bridge: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Ashurst Bridge?
Totton station, about 1.5 miles east of the centre.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Matthew: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Yes, and tell us how many children are coming, so we get the amounts right.
Should we warn the neighbours?
Let them know in advance.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Planners, venues and businesses
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
