Planning an event in Eddington?
Working with your venue
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
BBQ catering in Eddington, cooked on site
Barbecues are good at pleasing everyone, because there’s beef, chicken and pork to choose from, plus halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. We’re often asked to cater close and cul-de-sac parties and family celebrations, with pulled pork, halloumi skewers and beef brisket.
For a barbecue in Eddington, the garden is frequently the best venue. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we will do the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls.
What BBQ catering costs
Things that change the price:
- Numbers
- Plates or china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Access to the cooking area
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Allergies we should know about
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The date and time of the event
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Use our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A spot where smoke will not blow into the house or marquee
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
