Do you come out to small places like Soberton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
Once your date is fixed, especially for June to September. Short notice is still worth a try: send us your details through our quote form.
Do you do barbecues out of season?

Meat is cooked until it’s steaming hot all the way through, with no pink and juices running clear, following Food Standards Agency advice.
Will you clear up afterwards?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
