Mr Metcalf said: "Both of us have been thinking about this idea for a while and Justin has experience working at restaurants throughout Norfolk.
"We trialled it last weekend to see if there was interest and we had 35 covers booked in and another 12 calls on the day and the reaction has been really positive and people were blown away by the quality of it.
"Roasts are part of British culture and everyone loves them on a Sunday in the comfort of their own home.
"If you go out for one and you're driving you can't drink so to have it all delivered at restaurant quality is a no brainer.
