What BBQ catering costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Distance from us
- Plates or china
- How many people are eating
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What we need to know
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The address or postcode
- Your date and serving time
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: use our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- A clear way in from where we park
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests

Questions from Pyle Hill
Could you cook in Mayford Meadows?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Pyle Hill?
Worplesdon station, in Pyle Hill itself.
Can it be a sit-down meal?
Of course. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides.
Is the food cooked safely?
Cooking properly is our job: separate equipment for raw and cooked food, and everything cooked through.
Can you barbecue in bad weather?
We bring cover for the grill, so it is guests who need a wet-weather plan.
Do you label the food for allergies?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We tidy the serving area, so there is very little washing up. China is available on request.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.

- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
Running late? Let us know, and we’ll work around it where possible.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
