About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.

Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Think about children’s portions
Have a word with the neighbours first: the roast cooks for hours.
China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.
