About our BBQ catering in Horsham
Whether it is twenty friends in a garden or a whole workforce in a car park, a barbecue can be planned around the size of your event. Give us an idea of numbers and we’ll suggest a menu. We are frequently asked to cater team days and staff summer parties and leaving parties, with beef brisket, halloumi skewers and chicken skewers.
Horsham is a large place with every kind of setting for a barbecue, from business parks and sports clubs to gardens and function venues. Wherever it is, the grill needs level ground, cover and clearance. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Is a barbecue right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so for bigger events, why not both?. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address for an accurate figure.

- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
