Frilford Heath questions
Is Frilford Heath too small for a barbecue?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to Frilford Heath?
Radley station, about 5 miles east of the centre.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Ask and we will quote for the mix.
Will children like the BBQ?
Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, and a vegan sausage covers anyone who does not eat meat. Let us know numbers for children.
Do you come to Frilford Heath?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.
How do you handle food safety?
Cooking properly is our job: separate equipment for raw and cooked food, and everything cooked through.
Do you offer halal meat?
No. If guests need halal, arrange that separately.

Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

Step by step
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. A summer barbecue in Frilford Heath stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:10pm.
- Send us the date, the place and roughly how many.
- Pick the menu with us.
- We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
- On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive
