About our BBQ catering in Beansheaf Farm
A barbecue suits mixed groups well, because there’s beef, chicken and pork to choose from, and proper vegetarian and vegan options too. For community fun days and leaving parties, we’ll put together a menu of sausages, halloumi skewers and chicken skewers and more.
In a place like Beansheaf Farm, a barbecue at home is normally the easiest option. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

Beansheaf Farm questions
Is Beansheaf Farm close to London?
About 41 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Could you cook in Calcot Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Do you cover Beansheaf Farm?
Yes, Beansheaf Farm is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
What meats do you barbecue?
Six meats, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Most events pick three or four.
What do children typically eat?
Yes, generally: simple food in a roll suits most children. Tell us how many children to expect.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Have a gazebo, marquee or room indoors for eating.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
Do you cater for vegetarians?
Yes. There is a halloumi option and a vegan option, cooked separately from the meat.
What happens on the day
Grilled food is at its best when it’s hot, so we cook to order through service. Slow-cooked meats are ready as soon as service begins, so nobody waits for the first round. A summer barbecue in Beansheaf Farm stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. In late September, it’s dark by about 7:10pm.
