A barbecue in the countryside near Newton Valence makes a lovely summer party. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather, and think about lighting if it runs late. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A level lawn, patio or hard standing
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Questions from Newton Valence
What’s the nearest station to Newton Valence?
The closest is Alton station, roughly 4.2 miles away.
Do you come out to small places like Newton Valence?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you offer halal meat?
We do not offer halal. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.
How many meats should we choose?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. Fewer items keeps service quick.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Ask and we will quote for the mix.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Of course. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides; ask about china if you’d like it.
What if it rains?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop it. Have a gazebo, marquee or room indoors for eating.
Do you cater for vegetarians?
We do. Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, and vegans get a vegan burger or sausage.
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to a buffet, barbecue food is hot and cooked to order. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
