Roughly 59 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Headbourne Worthy 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.
Should we have every meat?
You do not need everything. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket and we’ll advise on the rest.

Yes. Many bigger events have both. Tell us your numbers and we will suggest a split.
Will children like the BBQ?
Burgers and sausages are typically the children’s favourites, and a vegan sausage covers anyone who doesn’t eat meat. Tell us roughly how many are coming.

The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Tell us what’s available on site and we will confirm the rest when we quote.
