Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
We cook under cover, so the season doesn’t stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.

Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
What do you need from the venue?
The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Tell us what’s available on site and we will confirm the rest when we quote.
What do children normally eat?
Typically, yes: simple food in a roll suits most children. Give us a rough number of children.
