About 21 miles from central London.
Which station is closest to Ottershaw?
Chertsey station, about 1.9 miles north-east of the centre.
Do you label the food for allergies?
We give you allergen information for every dish, and we will label the meat-free choices clearly.

We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.
Is the barbecue cooked on site?
Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. The barbecue needs a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings and trees.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Burgers and sausages are normally the children’s favourites, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Tell us roughly how many are coming.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Of course. With salads and potatoes, it’s a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.

What comes off the grill
Beef burgers
Our chef grills beef burgers to order, hot off the barbecue.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
The process
Barbecue food is best straight off the grill, so we cook to order through service. Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the start, so nobody waits for the first round. Sunset in Ottershaw is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Choose the menu a week or so before

How we price a catered barbecue

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to a buffet, everything is hot and freshly cooked, and nothing sits out all afternoon. The menu makes a big difference to the price: 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 us?
- An itemised quote
- Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option
Organising for someone else?
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Tell us if anyone doesn’t eat beef
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
After service, our staff clear up, so there’s very little left for you to do.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue with a little planning. Check these:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
