A catered BBQ in Tattenham Corner: what to know
Tattenham Corner is about 2 miles south-east of Epsom, in Surrey. We cater events of every size in Tattenham Corner. Tattenham Corner is one of 395 places in Surrey where we cater. Our bookings stretch from Tattenham Corner to London (about 15 miles away).
Among the historic houses close to Tattenham Corner are Fitznells Manor (3 miles north) and Nonsuch Mansion (3.5 miles north).

Questions from Tattenham Corner
Can you do a barbecue in Merland Rise Recreational Ground?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
What do you need from the venue?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Tell us what’s available on site and we’ll confirm the rest when we quote.
Will children like the BBQ?
Yes, generally: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Tell us how many children to expect.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Can you do halal?
We do not offer halal. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.
Can you do a hog roast as well?
We can. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
We get there well before service, so the grill is up to heat when you are ready to eat.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
