A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue cooked by friends, nobody is left cooking while the party happens, and the food is cooked by people who do it every week. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Common questions in Kingsgate
Can you barbecue near the sea around Kingsgate?
Yes. We cook under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Is Kingsgate too small for a barbecue?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
What meats do you barbecue?
Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We tidy the serving area. Ask if you’d like china.
What does the venue need to provide?
Space and a way in, mainly: somewhere level outside for the barbecue and the serving table. We’ll confirm details when we quote.
Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?
Yes, ask us to label the food. Let us know about allergies before the day.
Will children like the BBQ?
Typically, yes: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Give us a rough number of children.
Where the barbecue can go in Kingsgate
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

For event organisers in Kingsgate

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
The serving table is kept tidy and stocked, right through the service.
