BBQ catering for your event in South Warnborough
Some of the best barbecues are the ones where the host gets to sit down. We look after the grill, the serving and the clearing, so your time goes on your guests, not the food. Typical bookings include Fêtes, fairs and sports days and big birthday parties, with sausages, chicken skewers and beef burgers.
In a small place like South Warnborough, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
After service, our staff clear up, so there is very little left for you to do.
For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to a formal plated meal, a barbecue keeps things informal, and it does not need a kitchen. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Why book with us
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option
Organising for someone else?
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
