Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Site access
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Numbers
- Whether you want china
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Details that help
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers
- The address or postcode
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.

A barbecue or other catering?
Next to a buffet, barbecue food is hot and cooked to order, and nothing sits out all afternoon. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Why book with us
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Served at the time you choose
- Meat-free choices on every menu
Read our pricing or BBQ menu ideas.
A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
BBQ ribs
Sticky, glazed ribs are the messy treat of the menu.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
Our chef cooks through the agreed service time, and our staff serve and keep the queue moving.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
How it works
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then it is a case of cooking and serving through the time you’ve chosen. In Bexon, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:15pm, so an early-evening barbecue is typically in daylight.
- Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We set up under cover before service.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Preparing for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Let us know about tight access

Questions from Bexon
Can you do a barbecue in Cromers Wood?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.
Is Bexon too small for a barbecue?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
Summer is the busiest time, but we cook all year. Plan shelter for your guests.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
Once your date is fixed, particularly for a summer weekend. Short notice is still worth a try: send us your details through our quote form.
Do you label the food for allergies?
Yes, ask us to label the food. Let us know about allergies before the day.
What does the venue need to provide?
The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Let us know about the site and we will confirm what we need.
