The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Let your neighbours know
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Count children separately
- Show us where the van would go
After service, we pack up and leave the drive tidy.
