About our BBQ catering in Bourne End

In Bourne End, a barbecue is a favourite for relaxed events: familiar food, lots of choice and no formality. The difference with a catered barbecue is that nobody from your party is stuck at the grill. Typical bookings include Fêtes, fairs and sports days and summer parties in the garden, serving coleslaw, beef burgers and pulled pork.

For a barbecue in Bourne End, the garden is frequently the best venue. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

How we price a catered barbecue

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:

  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Whether you want china
  • How many people are eating
  • The journey to the venue

Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.

What to tell us

Here’s what we will ask:

  • Dietary requirements
  • The date and time of the event
  • The venue or postcode
  • Anything the venue has asked for

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Use our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:

  • Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
  • Ask about allergies when guests reply
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten

We cook as your guests come up, and our staff serve and keep the queue moving.

Ask about china for a sit-down meal, quoted separately.

A catered barbecue compared with other options

Compared with a cold buffet, barbecue food is hot and cooked to order. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

For event organisers in Bourne End

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

Bourne End questions

Which station is closest to Bourne End?

Is Bourne End close to London?

About 27 miles from central London.

What happens after service?

Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.

Can you do halal?

No, we don’t offer halal meat. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.

How do you handle food safety?

What meats do you barbecue?

Six meats, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Most events pick three or four.

Can we have a barbecue in winter?

The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.

Can you do a hog roast as well?

Yes. Many bigger events have both. Ask and we will quote for the mix.

The process

Before service, we set up the grill and the serving table on the agreed spot. Then it’s a case of cooking and serving through the time you’ve chosen. In Bourne End, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.

  1. We start with your date, venue and numbers.
  2. Pick the menu with us.
  3. We check the space and quote.
  4. On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.
  5. We pack away and leave the area tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
  • Think about lights for the serving area after dark
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
