How we price a catered barbecue
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Crockery choices
- The journey to the venue
- The number of people
- Site access
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What to tell us
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Allergies we should know about
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and serving time
- Roughly how many people
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Send us your date for a quote: use our quote form.

Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
