Mundy Bois: your questions answered
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is Mundy Bois too small for a barbecue?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
Summer is the busiest time, but we cook all year, with cover over the grill. Plan shelter for your guests.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Yes, on plates with salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
How soon do barbecue dates go?
Once your date is fixed, particularly for a summer weekend. But ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
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.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Ask and we’ll quote for the mix.
A barbecue or other catering?
Next to a buffet, everything is hot and freshly cooked. What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.
Why Mundy Bois hosts choose us
- Hot food straight off the grill
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
Read our pricing and our barbecue menu ideas.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot tidy.
For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.
Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Where the barbecue can go in Mundy Bois
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
