Barbecues in Castle Town: gardens, clubs and local tips

If the day starts at a church like St Botolph's Church, the barbecue can be ready at a hall or garden close by. Summer fairs and sports days, for a school such as Upper Beeding Primary School, frequently want a barbecue. The sea is within about 4 miles of Castle Town, so breezy days are common: we choose a sheltered spot for the grill and keep smoke away from guests.
We cover events in every part of the BN44 postcode area and the streets around it. From Henfield Road, The Bostal and Shoreham Road or anywhere nearby, we can set up and cook there. Nearby, we also cater events in Adur (2 miles south), Old Shoreham (3 miles south), Shoreham-by-Sea (3 miles south), Fulking (3 miles east) and Kingston by Sea (4 miles south-east).

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades

- Tell us about children’s numbers
All the cooking and serving equipment comes with us, so there’s no need to borrow a grill.
Ask about china for a sit-down meal, at extra cost.
How the day works
Before service, we set up the grill and the serving table on the agreed spot. Then our chef cooks and the team serves for as long as we’ve agreed. Sunset in Castle Town is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so an early-evening barbecue is typically in daylight.
- First, you send us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
- Think about where the smoke will drift
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
