For planners, venues and organisers
Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
Our chef cooks through the agreed service time, while our staff serve and keep things flowing.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
Haylands questions
Can you barbecue near the sea around Haylands?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Which station is closest to Haylands?
The closest is Ryde St Johns Road station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
What do children normally eat?
Generally, yes: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Give us a rough number of children.
Should we have every meat?
Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. A shorter menu also speeds up service.
Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?
We do. There’s a halloumi option and a vegan option, cooked separately from the meat.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
Do you offer halal meat?
No. If guests need halal, arrange that separately.
What we serve, dish by dish
BBQ ribs
For guests who love barbecue, the ribs are frequently the highlight.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan guests can have a vegan burger or sausage, so nobody misses out.

What the cooking area needs

Planning a barbecue in Haylands
Haylands is about 1 mile south-west of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. We cover events in Haylands, as well as the surrounding area. Haylands is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight where we cater. We cater events right across the region, from Haylands to Southampton (about 17 miles away).
Among the historic houses close to Haylands are Nunwell House (2.5 miles south) and Morton Manor (3.3 miles south). Historic venues frequently limit cooking on site, so ask early if you’re booking one. Coming by train? Ryde St Johns Road station is about 0.9 miles away. The sea is within about 2 miles of Haylands, so breezy days are common: we choose a sheltered spot for the grill and keep smoke away from guests.
We cater events across PO33 and the streets around it. Local streets include Play Lane, Pell Lane and Upton Road; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. We also bring barbecues to events in Upton (1 mile south-west), Ryde (1 mile north-east), Oakfield (1 mile east), Binstead (1 mile north-west) and Elmfield (1 mile east). We also serve nearby towns such as Newport (6 miles west), Cowes (6 miles north-west), Sandown (4 miles south), Shanklin (6 miles south), Ventnor (9 miles south) and East Cowes (5 miles north-west). For an event at a remote spot, tell us early so we can plan the journey.
A little further out are Sandown Castle (4.4 miles south) and Gosport War Memorial Hospital (5.3 miles north). The countryside around Haylands includes Alan Hersey Nature Reserve and Brading Down.
- Nearby schools include Ryde Academy (within half a mile north) and Ryde School with Upper Chine (0.8 miles north-east)
- Nearby, you will find The Falcon pub (0.5 miles north-east)
How it works
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. It means food comes off the grill hot. At midsummer, it’s light in Haylands until about 9:20pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:10pm.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and get the grill hot.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
How to prepare
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Confirm your menu choices in good time
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
