Questions from Lower Burgate
Is Lower Burgate too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cater after a service at St Mary's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What about kids?
Yes, and tell us how many children are coming, so we get the amounts right.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
