Pagham questions
Could you cook in Avisford?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.
Is Pagham close to London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Yes. Plates come as standard, with sides such as salads and potatoes, and china is available on request.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
We can. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.
How soon do barbecue dates go?
Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Midweek dates are typically easier to get. Fill in our quote form.
What does the venue need to provide?
Space and a way in, mainly: a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings, with cover over the grill. We will confirm details when we quote.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Six meats, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Most events pick three or four.

If the day starts at a church like The Parish Church of St Thomas A Becket, the barbecue can be ready at a hall or garden close by. For anyone arriving by rail, Bognor Regis station is about 3.2 miles away. With the coast within about 4 miles of Pagham, wind is the thing to plan for: we choose a sheltered spot for the grill and keep smoke away from guests.
Anywhere in PO21, we can bring the barbecue to you. Local streets include Swan Dene, Sea Lane and Well Road; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in.

What affects the price in Pagham
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Travel to Pagham
- Crockery choices
- Season and day of the week
- Access to the cooking area
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Any venue rules
- Roughly how many people
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Allergies we should know about
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or PO21 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Send us your details through our quote form.
Looking after everyone
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
Our staff keep the serving table tidy and topped up, so the barbecue looks as good at the end as at the start.
Ask about china for a sit-down meal, quoted separately.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A clear way in from where we park
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

How it works
On the day, we position the grill under cover and get it up to heat. From there, we cook as your guests come up, worked around your serving time. In Pagham, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, 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.
Before we arrive
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Keep the grill downwind of the seating
- Let us know about tight access
How to get a price
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we will check it: send us your details through our quote form.
