Common questions in Littlestone-on-Sea
Is Littlestone-on-Sea 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.
Can you do a barbecue in Romney Warren Country Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Is clearing up included?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: use our quote form.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
We cook under cover, so the season doesn’t stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Do you offer halal meat?
No, we do not offer halal meat. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, with halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.

A catered barbecue compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue cooked by friends, a catered barbecue means everyone gets to be a guest, and the food is cooked by people who do it every week.

What you get with us
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Meat-free choices on every menu
- Planned to your running order
- Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
