BBQ catering in Stroude, served hot
In Stroude, a barbecue is a favourite for relaxed events: familiar food, lots of choice and no formality. With us cooking, nobody you know spends the afternoon at the grill. We serve chicken skewers, pulled pork and beef burgers, and we’re often booked for work barbecues and Fêtes, fairs and sports days.
A barbecue in the countryside near Stroude makes a lovely summer party. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue if a few things are right. A quick checklist:
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
- Somewhere for us to park close to the cooking spot
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Stroude
Could you cook in Riverside Walk?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Stroude?
Virginia Water station, about 0.7 miles south of the centre.
Do you offer halal meat?
No, we do not offer halal meat. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Will you clear up afterwards?
Yes, we clear up after service. Ask if you’d like china.
How do you handle food safety?
That’s one of the best reasons to have it catered: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.
When should we book BBQ catering?
The earlier the better for summer weekends. Weekday and off-season dates are often easier. Fill in our quote form.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
Yes, and it is a popular combination. Tell us your numbers and we will suggest a split.
