How it works
The barbecue goes on the agreed spot, and the rest of the space is yours. We’ll place the grill so smoke drifts away from guests. In Stoke Lyne, late May sunsets come at about 9:00pm and midsummer ones at about 9:30pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
- Show us the space.
- We check it and send a price.
- On the day, we cook on site under cover.
- We serve as your guests come up.
- We clear up so you don’t have to.
