FAQs for Northway
What’s the nearest station to Northway?
The closest is Oxford station, roughly 2.4 miles away.
Could you cook in Bury Knowle Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
What do children generally eat?
Burgers and sausages are generally the children’s favourites, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Tell us roughly how many are coming.
Do you label the food for allergies?
You will get allergen information for everything we serve, and we can label the vegetarian and vegan options.
What if it rains?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop it. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.
Can it be a sit-down meal?
Yes. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
How it works
A barbecue is cooked as people eat, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. That keeps everything hot and fresh. At midsummer, it’s light in Northway until about 9:25pm, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:10pm.
