What affects the price in Fleet
Each price is built from:
- Season and day of the week
- How many people are eating
- Whether you want china
- The journey to the venue
The menu makes a big difference to the price: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rough numbers
- Where the event is

BBQ catering in Fleet, cooked on site
Hosting a barbecue normally means shopping, prepping, cooking and clearing. A catered barbecue takes all of that off your hands, so you can enjoy your own event. Whether it’s back-garden get-togethers and fundraising days, we will put together a menu of chicken skewers, beef burgers and coleslaw.
Birthdays, staff days and club events in Fleet all suit a catered barbecue. The common need is a spot outside for the grill, with cover overhead. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.
Planning a barbecue in Fleet
Fleet is about 13 miles south-east of Reading, in Hampshire. Fleet and the surrounding area are covered for events. Fleet is one of 683 places in Hampshire we cover. Our bookings stretch from Fleet to Guildford (12 miles away).
Within reach of Fleet are historic houses such as Farnham Castle (4.1 miles south). Historic venues frequently limit cooking on site, so ask early if you’re booking one. After a christening at a church such as Fleet Methodist Church, a barbecue at home or a hall nearby is an easy way to feed everyone.
This part of Hampshire takes in GU51, GU52 and GU10, and we can cater your event anywhere in it. We can cater an event on streets such as Church Road, Durnsford Avenue and Hankins Court, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the barbecue. Fleet sits on or near the A323 and A3013, so getting the barbecue to your event is simple. Close by, we cover events in Church Crookham (1 mile south-east), Crookham Village (1 mile west), Elvetham Heath (1 mile north-west), Dogmersfield (2 miles west) and Elvetham (2 miles north-west). Further out, we also cater in Basingstoke (11 miles west), Farnborough (3 miles north-east), Aldershot (4 miles south-east), Alton (10 miles south-west), Yateley (4 miles north) and Tadley (14 miles north-west). Fleet is among the bigger towns we cover in Hampshire, with plenty of venues for events.
Nearby you will also find Royal Army Dental Corps Historical Museum (3.9 miles east) and Fleet Community Hospital (1 mile north-west). The countryside around Fleet includes Fleet Pond Nature Reserve and Hitches Hill.
- Local schools include Court Moor School (within half a mile south-west)
- Nearby, you will find The Prince of Wales pub (under half a mile south-west)

For planners, venues and organisers
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 everyone in the loop.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue if a few things are right. A quick checklist:
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- A clear way in from where we park
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Common questions in Fleet
Could you cook in Oakley Park?

How far is Fleet from London?
About 36 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
Most barbecues are in summer, but we can cook in any season, with cover over the grill. Guests will want somewhere dry and warm.
How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
Once your date is fixed, particularly for a summer weekend. But ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What does the venue need to provide?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Let us know about the site and we will confirm what we need.
Is the meat halal?
No. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it; our vegetarian and vegan options are available.

Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, so the event carries on around us.
Pulled pork and brisket make the menu feel more substantial.
