How we price a catered barbecue
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Access to the cooking area
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The journey to the venue
- Numbers
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
These are the details we need:
- The address or postcode

Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.
The process
We get there well ahead of food time, so the grill is hot by the time you want to eat. Your guests will smell it before they see it. For an evening barbecue in Totford, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:10pm. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
