Hartley Mauditt: your questions answered
Is Hartley Mauditt close to London?
About 45 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you come out to small places like Hartley Mauditt?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Yes, generally: simple food in a roll suits most children. Give us a rough number of children.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
We cook under cover, so the season doesn’t stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Do you need anything from us?
Space and a way in, mainly: a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings, with cover over the grill. We will check anything else with you.
How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
Once your date is fixed, especially for June to September. Short notice is still worth a try: send us your details through our quote form.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Yes. With salads and potatoes, it’s a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.
