Comparing your options
A hog roast is great for meat lovers, but harder for vegetarians and vegans. Separate fillings cover every diet. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why us?
- Menus for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests
- A clear quote
- Served fresh from our food truck or trailer
- A plan agreed before the day
