Your questions about a catered barbecue in Frieth
Which station is closest to Frieth?
Marlow station, about 4.3 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
We bring cover for the grill, so it is guests who need a wet-weather plan.
Do you cater for vegetarians?
Yes. Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, and vegans get a vegan burger or sausage.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Of course. With salads and potatoes, it is a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
Summer is the busiest time, but we cook all year, with cover over the grill. Plan shelter for your guests.
How much choice do we need?
Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. Fewer items keeps service quick.
Is the food cooked safely?
Cooking properly is our job: separate equipment for raw and cooked food, and everything cooked through.
