How we price a catered barbecue
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- Crockery choices
- The journey to the venue
- How many people are eating
- The date and time of year
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Your date and serving time
- Where the event is
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Roughly how many people
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.
