Common questions in Leatherhead
What’s the nearest station to Leatherhead?
Leatherhead station, in Leatherhead itself.
Is Leatherhead close to London?
About 17 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Will children like the BBQ?
Burgers and sausages are usually the children’s favourites, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Tell us roughly how many are coming.
What’s on your BBQ menu?
Six meats, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Ask and we’ll quote for the mix.
Do you come to Leatherhead?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Leatherhead and the rest of Surrey included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
Can we have a barbecue in winter?
Summer is the busiest time, but we cook all year, with cover over the grill. Guests will want somewhere dry and warm.
What if it rains?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Have a gazebo, marquee or room indoors for eating.
BBQ catering for your event in Leatherhead
Whether it is twenty friends in a garden or a whole workforce in a car park, a catered barbecue scales to the occasion. Tell us your rough numbers and we will plan the menu and service. Popular choices include BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, and we’re frequently booked for charity fundraisers and close and cul-de-sac parties.
In a town like Leatherhead, a garden barbecue is a summer favourite, and a club or hall with outdoor space works if the garden is small. We need a level spot away from the house. Everything is cooked through properly, with raw and cooked food kept apart.

Organising for someone else?
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
How it works
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. Autumn and winter barbecues in Leatherhead get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. For a late-season barbecue, lunchtime is easiest.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check availability and the space for the barbecue and send a clear quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.

Leatherhead is about 4 miles south-west of Epsom, in Surrey. Leatherhead is well within our area for events. We bring barbecues to all 395 towns and villages in Surrey, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Guildford, about 11 miles away.
Summer fairs and sports days, for a school such as Leatherhead Trinity School and Children's Centre, often want a barbecue. After a christening at a church such as Church of Our Lady and St Peter, a barbecue at home or a hall nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. Leatherhead is within about 4 miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape, so a countryside barbecue here comes with a view. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules about open cooking and vehicles, so check with yours.

Streets in the area include High Street, Church Road and Station Road, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the barbecue.

Space, access and the venue
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:

How we price a catered barbecue
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How many people are eating
- Crockery choices
The menu makes a big difference to the price: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, it helps to include:
- The address or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Any dietary needs or allergies
