How our BBQ catering works in Lions Green
Food from a barbecue is best eaten hot off the grill, so we cook and serve through the agreed service time. Give us your serving time and we will work to it. Whether it’s school fairs and summer fêtes and back-garden get-togethers, we will put together a menu of beef burgers, BBQ ribs and halloumi skewers for your guests.
Country barbecues near Lions Green are hard to beat on a summer evening. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Lions Green: your questions answered
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Is Lions Green close to London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?
Yes: halloumi and vegetable skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage for vegans. Tell us numbers so there is enough.
What’s on your BBQ menu?
Burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve, and we will label the meat-free choices clearly.
What do children generally eat?
Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Let us know numbers for children.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
How many meats should we choose?
You don’t need everything. Pick a mix of grilled and slow-cooked meats and we will advise on the rest.
Step by step
We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then our chef cooks and the team serves through the time you’ve chosen. Evening barbecues in Lions Green need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:15pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.
- We start with your date, venue and numbers.
- Choose your meats and sides.
- We check the space and quote.
- We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Plan lighting if the barbecue runs into the evening
- Choose the menu a week or so before
- Think about shelter for your guests

Planning help
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
All the cooking and serving equipment comes with us, so you don’t need to find grills or tongs.
For a more filling menu, add pulled pork or brisket.
What comes off the grill
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Crunchy coleslaw suits barbecue food, while salads keep it light.
Organising for someone else?
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
How we price a catered barbecue
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
- Site access
- Numbers
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Details that help
Here’s what we will ask:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any venue rules
- Dietary requirements
- An estimate of numbers
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.
