How it works
A barbecue is cooked as people eat, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. It means food comes off the grill hot. In Farley Green, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.

Planning help
Planning a barbecue in Farley Green
Farley Green is about 5 miles south-east of Guildford, in Surrey. We’re happy to travel to Farley Green for events and the places nearby. Farley Green is one of 395 places in Surrey we cover.
For anyone arriving by rail, the nearest station is Chilworth station, about 2.3 miles north-west. A green space like Cucknell's Wood is tempting, but a catered barbecue there needs the landowner’s say-so. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within about 2 miles of Farley Green, a lovely setting for an outdoor barbecue. Venues there may restrict open cooking, so ask about their rules first.
Wherever your event is in GU5, we can bring the barbecue to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Ride Lane, Shophouse Lane and August Lane, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the barbecue.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Farley Green
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 will follow the site rules.
Could you cook in Cucknell's Wood?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Have a gazebo, marquee or room indoors for eating.
Can it be a sit-down meal?
Yes. With salads and potatoes, it is a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.
How many meats should we choose?
Not usually. Pick a mix of grilled and slow-cooked meats and we’ll advise on the rest.
Will children like the BBQ?
Yes, generally: simple food in a roll suits most children. Give us a rough number of children.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Ask and we’ll quote for the mix.
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to a formal plated meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and needs no kitchen at the venue. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Why us?
- Our staff serve and clear
- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option
- Add a hog roast alongside
