The process

Before service, we set up the grill and the serving table on the agreed spot. Then our chef cooks and the team serves through the time you’ve chosen. By late September, sunset in Flackwell Heath is about 7:05pm; in December it is about 3:55pm. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.

A catered barbecue compared with other options

Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and it does not need a kitchen. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

Why us?

  • Sides to make it a full meal
  • Our chef at the grill, not you
  • Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
  • Vegetarian and vegan options as standard

Take a look at our prices page and our barbecue menu ideas.

How we price a catered barbecue

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Site access
  • Plates or china
  • Numbers
  • Season and day of the week

Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Where the event is
  • Rough numbers
  • Your date and serving time

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.
