BBQ catering in Ewhurst
About our BBQ catering in Ewhurst
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. A catered barbecue takes all of that off your hands, so you can spend the time with your guests. On the menu are halloumi skewers, BBQ ribs and beef burgers, and we’re frequently booked for 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays and school fairs and summer fêtes.
A barbecue in the countryside near Ewhurst makes a lovely summer party. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather, and think about lighting if it runs late. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.

Chicken gives guests who do not eat pork or beef a meat option.
What affects the price in Ewhurst
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Season and day of the week
- Whether you want china
- Site access
- The journey to the venue
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
What to tell us
To get the best quote, send us:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Where the event is
For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or GU6 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Use our quote form.

Organising for someone else?
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’ll deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with a cold buffet, everything is hot and freshly cooked. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

Barbecues in Ewhurst: gardens, clubs and local tips
Ewhurst is about 7 miles south-west of Dorking, in Surrey. We cater events of every size in Ewhurst. Ewhurst is one of 395 towns and villages in Surrey where we cater. Our bookings stretch from Ewhurst to Guildford (9 miles away).
If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like Ewhurst CofE Aided Infant School, a barbecue is a crowd-pleaser. If you had Sayer's Croft LNR in mind, ask the council or landowner first: barbecues are frequently restricted in parks. Ewhurst is within about 4 miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape, so a countryside barbecue here comes with a view. Venues there may restrict open cooking, so ask about their rules first.

Ewhurst questions
Is Ewhurst close to London?
Roughly 28 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How soon do barbecue dates go?
Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Midweek dates are typically easier to get. Use our quote form.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Do you need anything from us?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Tell us what’s available on site and we will confirm the rest when we quote.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Ask and we’ll quote for the mix.
Can you cater in Ewhurst?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Ewhurst and Surrey. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
What meats do you barbecue?
You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Most events pick three or four.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:
- A clear way in from where we park
- A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
