Common questions in Mill Lane
Which station is closest to Mill Lane?
The closest is Winchfield station, roughly 3 miles away.
Could you cook in Basingbourne Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
How much choice do we need?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. Fewer items keeps service quick.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Ask and we’ll quote for the mix.
Do you come to Mill Lane?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Mill Lane and the rest of Surrey included. Send us the address for a quote.
Is clearing up included?
We tidy the serving area. Ask if you’d like china.
Do you label the food for allergies?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Let us know about allergies before the day.
BBQ catering in Mill Lane, cooked on site
Whether it’s twenty friends in a garden or a whole workforce in a car park, a barbecue can be planned around the size of your event. Give us an idea of numbers and we will suggest a menu. Whether it is club open days and team days and staff summer parties, we’ll put together a menu of beef burgers, halloumi skewers and chicken skewers and more.
Country barbecues near Mill Lane are hard to beat on a summer evening. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Planning for dietary needs
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
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Think about who does not eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
On the day, we arrive in good time to set up, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
Ask about china for a sit-down meal, quoted separately.
