No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is Iden Green from London?
About 42 miles from central London.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Do you cook the barbecue on site?
Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. The barbecue needs a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings and trees.
How soon do barbecue dates go?
As soon as you know the date, particularly for a summer weekend. But ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Is clearing up included?
Yes, we clear up after service, so there is very little washing up. China is available on request.
Should we have every meat?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. Fewer items keeps service quick.
What do you need from the venue?
The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Let us know about the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
What affects the price in Iden Green
Your quote depends on:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of people
- Plates or china
- Travel to Iden Green
The menu makes a big difference to the price: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Dietary requirements
- An estimate of numbers
- The address or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: use our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the moment service begins, which takes the pressure off the grill.
