Common questions in Brading
What’s the nearest station to Brading?
Brading has its own station: Brading station.
Do you come out to small places like Brading?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop it. Have a gazebo, marquee or room indoors for eating.
Can you do halal?
We do not offer halal. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
Will you clear up afterwards?
Yes, we clear up after service, so there’s very little washing up. China is available on request.
Should we have every meat?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. A shorter menu also speeds up service.
Do you come to Brading?
Yes, Brading is in our area. Send us the address and we will check the date.
Do you label the food for allergies?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Let us know about allergies before the day.
For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue if a few things are right. Check these:
- Space for our vehicle nearby
- The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
For somewhere as remote as Brading, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
