What affects the price in East Worldham
The biggest factors are:
- Site access
- Whether you want china
- Season and day of the week
- The journey to the venue
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Roughly how many people
- Any venue rules
- Where the event is
- Dietary requirements
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.
A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with hiring a venue’s in-house menu, you pick the meats, the sides and the meat-free options yourself. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why us?
- Our chef at the grill, not you
- Served at the time you choose
- Add a hog roast alongside
- An itemised quote

Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A spot where smoke will not blow into the house or marquee
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- A clear way in from where we park
