Food for the whole table

Pig roast. Peppers. Falafel. Everybody gets fed.

Mixed groups are normal. Build the food around the people who are actually coming — without shunting anybody off into a sad little “special option”.

Approx. 50 servings per pig

Whole hog roast

Big, generous and made for a crowd.

Roast pork, crackling and proper outdoor-event theatre. It can carry the table or sit beside a substantial plant-based menu.

£475per pig · approx. 50 servings
Vegetarian / vegan-friendly

Stuffed peppers + falafel feast

Colourful food in its own right.

Stuffed peppers, falafel and generous sides designed to sit confidently beside the hog roast or carry the whole event themselves.

£14per portion · minimum 20 when selected

Dry pop-up bar or a staffed setup.

Sit down. Stay awhile.

Simple per-head pricing tied directly to the guest count.
