What affects the price in Burghfield Common
Things that change the price:
- Plates or china
- Access to the cooking area
- Distance from us
- The number of people
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
To check the date and the space, we will need:
- Any venue rules

Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: fill in our quote form.
The menu, dish by dish
Pulled pork
Because it’s slow-cooked, pulled pork is ready as soon as we start serving, which keeps the queue moving.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Organising for someone else?
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue if a few things are right. Check these:
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
