A barbecue or other catering?
Instead of a takeaway delivery, the cooking is part of the atmosphere, and the grill becomes a gathering point. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why Lower Green hosts choose us
- Six meats to choose from
- Pair it with a hog roast if you like
- Cooked on site by our chef
- A clear quote with everything listed

Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We get there well before service, so the grill is up to heat when you are ready to eat.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
The process
The barbecue goes on the agreed spot, so your event carries on around us. We will place the grill so smoke drifts away from guests. At midsummer, it’s light in Lower Green until about 9:25pm, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:10pm.
- Show us the space.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- We grill outdoors at your event.
- Our team serves hot food through the agreed time.
- We clear up so you don’t have to.
Preparing for the day
- Plan lighting if the barbecue runs into the evening
- Choose the menu a week or so before
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
Getting a price
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: send us your details through our quote form.
