About our BBQ catering in East Horsley
Barbecue food is at its best straight from the grill, which is why we cook and serve as your guests come up. Give us your serving time and we will work to it. We serve beef brisket, halloumi skewers and chicken skewers, and we’re regularly asked to cater 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays and summer staff days.
For a barbecue in East Horsley, the garden is often the best venue. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we will bring everything else. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Ask which items contain gluten
Running late? Let us know, and we will work around it where possible.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Getting ready for the day
