Allergies and dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
We bring everything we need to cook and serve, so you do not need to find grills or tongs.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
The process
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower will not stop it, but plan somewhere dry for people to eat. For an evening barbecue in Great Hollands, think about light: it is light until about 9:25pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
- We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Think about where the smoke will drift
- Choose the menu a week or so before

Great Hollands: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Great Hollands?
The closest is Bracknell station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
How far is Great Hollands from London?
About 30 miles from central London.
How much choice do we need?
You do not need everything. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
We bring cover for the grill, so it’s guests who need a wet-weather plan.
Is the food cooked safely?
That’s one of the best reasons to have it catered: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.
What does the venue need to provide?
Space and a way in, mainly: somewhere level outside for the barbecue and the serving table. We’ll check anything else with you.
Will guests know what’s in each dish?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Let us know about allergies before the day.
Where the barbecue can go in Great Hollands
Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

About the food

Beef burgers
Burgers cook quickly on the grill, so they keep the queue moving.
Is a barbecue right for your event?
Instead of a takeaway delivery, the cooking is part of the atmosphere, with the smell drawing people over. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
