Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
  • Note which guests don’t eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
  • Give final numbers in good time

We serve and clear without fuss, so the party carries on around us.

Working with your venue

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.

How it works

Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. In Great Hollands, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: about 9:25pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
  3. Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
  4. We cook through the day and serve right on cue.
  5. We clear away once everyone has eaten.

Before we arrive

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

  • Gather dietary requirements early
