What affects the price in Lambourn
We work out each quote from:
- Crockery choices
- Site access
- Travel to Lambourn
- How many people are eating
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. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we position the grill under cover and get it up to heat. From there, we cook as your guests come up, worked around your serving time. Sunset in Lambourn is about 9:00pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so an early-evening barbecue is generally in daylight.
- First, you send us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and get the grill hot.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
