How our BBQ catering works in Hog Hatch
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. A catered barbecue takes all of that off your hands, so you can enjoy your own event. For leaving parties and big birthday parties, we can cook beef burgers, pulled pork and sausages.
In a place like Hog Hatch, a barbecue at home is normally the easiest option. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we’ll do the rest. All the barbecue, none of the effort: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.
What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Request gluten-free rolls
We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, so the event carries on around us.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.
Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Hog Hatch barbecues: local tips
Hog Hatch is about 2 miles north of Farnham, in Surrey. Planning a catered barbecue in Hog Hatch? We can help. We cater 395 places across Surrey. Our bookings stretch from Hog Hatch to Guildford (10 miles away).
A green space like Weybourne LNR is tempting, but a catered barbecue there needs the landowner’s say-so. After a christening at a church such as St Mark the Evangelist Church, a barbecue at home or a hall nearby is an easy way to feed everyone.
This part of Surrey takes in GU9, and we can cater your event anywhere in it. Whether your event is on Coniston Drive, Dukes Walk and Folly Hill or anywhere nearby, we’ll bring the barbecue to you. If your venue is just outside Hog Hatch, we also cover Ewshot (1 mile north-west), Dora's Green (1 mile west), Warren Corner (1 mile west), Dippenhall (2 miles south-west) and Redlands (2 miles west). Further out, we also cater in Guildford (10 miles east), Woking (12 miles north-east), Camberley (8 miles north-east), Frimley (7 miles north-east), Haslemere (11 miles south) and Cranleigh (15 miles south-east).
A little further out are Hart Shopping Centre (3.7 miles north-west) and Museum of Farnham (1.3 miles south). Within reach you’ll find Farnham Park and Aunt's Pool.
- Nearby schools include Farnham Heath End School (1.1 miles east)
Hog Hatch questions
Could you cook in Weybourne LNR?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is Hog Hatch close to London?
Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
We cook under cover, so the season does not stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V) and a vegan burger or sausage (Ve). Let us know how many to expect.
What do you need from the venue?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Let us know about the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
When should we book BBQ catering?
The earlier the better for summer weekends. Weekday and off-season dates are frequently easier. Send us your details through our quote form.
Can you cater in Hog Hatch?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Hog Hatch and the rest of Surrey included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- Plates or china
- The date and time of year
- Numbers
- Travel to Hog Hatch
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What we need to know
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- Allergies we should know about
- Rough numbers
- The venue or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
Is a barbecue right for your event?
Compared with a cold buffet, barbecue food is hot and cooked to order. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Why Hog Hatch hosts choose us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- An itemised quote
- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more
