How we price a catered barbecue
The price comes down to:
- The journey to the venue
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Plates or china
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Rough numbers
- The date and time of the event
- Allergies we should know about
- The address or postcode
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill 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.
BBQ catering in Lyde Green, served hot
We cook outdoors, under cover, on a spot we agree with you, away from buildings, fences and overhanging branches. Send us a picture of the space and we will confirm it. On the menu are beef burgers, pulled pork and BBQ ribs, and we are regularly asked to cater garden parties and fundraising days.
In a small place like Lyde Green, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

For an evening barbecue in Lyde Green, think about light: it’s light until about 9:25pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.

Why us?
