How our BBQ catering works in Four Marks
There is something about a barbecue that gets people talking: the smell, the queue and the plates piled high. We’ll find the right spot at your venue in Four Marks. Whether it is sports clubs and team events and street parties, we will put together a menu of halloumi skewers, chicken skewers and coleslaw for your guests.
Around Four Marks, a garden with room to spare is all you need. A catered barbecue fits right in, with nobody you know stuck at the grill. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Think about who does not eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, so there’s very little left for you to do.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
