Looking after everyone

Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
  • Think about children’s portions
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans

We get there early to start the roast, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.

Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

Working with your venue

For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.

If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
