- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- We cook and serve when you are ready to eat.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Tell us if anyone doesn’t eat beef
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
If timings change, tell your contact as early as you can, and we’ll adjust where we can.
Pulled pork and brisket make the menu feel more substantial.
Working with your venue
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Bromley Common questions
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
What’s the nearest station to Bromley Common?
Bickley station, about 1.2 miles north of the centre.
Do you cover Bromley Common?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
Is barbecued chicken safe?
That’s one of the best reasons to have it catered: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
How many meats should we choose?
Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. Fewer items keeps service quick.
Is the meat halal?
No, we do not offer halal meat. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Tell us your numbers and we’ll suggest a split.
