BBQ catering in Arundel, cooked on site
Barbecues are good at pleasing everyone, because there is beef, chicken and pork to choose from, and proper vegetarian and vegan options too. For retirement do’s and close and cul-de-sac parties, we can cook sausages, beef burgers and chicken skewers and more.
Around Arundel, a garden with room to spare is all you need. A catered barbecue fits right in, and you will not spend it cooking. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

What the cooking area needs

- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

FAQs for Arundel
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We cook under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you do halal?
We do not offer halal. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.

We can. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.

Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.

For event organisers in Arundel
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
What comes off the grill
Chicken skewers
Chicken skewers are grilled on site, for guests who prefer chicken.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
