What happens on the day
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower won’t stop it, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. For an evening barbecue in Trolliloes, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:15pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:00pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.

- We check it and send a price.
- We grill outdoors at your event.
- Our team serves hot food through the agreed time.
- We leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive

Planning help
BBQ catering in Trolliloes, cooked on site
Whether it’s twenty friends in a garden or a whole workforce in a car park, a barbecue can be planned around the size of your event. Tell us your rough numbers and we’ll plan the menu and service. We’re often asked to cater evening wedding food and sports clubs and team events, serving coleslaw, halloumi skewers and beef burgers.
In a small place like Trolliloes, a barbecue in a garden, a paddock or the village green with permission is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Questions from Trolliloes
Is Trolliloes too small for a barbecue?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Trolliloes from London?
Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do halal?
No. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it; our vegetarian and vegan options are available.
Should we have every meat?
Not generally. Pick a mix of grilled and slow-cooked meats.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
What do you need from the venue?
Mostly space and access: somewhere level outside for the barbecue and the serving table. We’ll check anything else with you.
Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?
Yes, ask us to label the food. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Is clearing up included?
We tidy the serving area, so there is very little washing up. Ask if you’d like china.
What affects the price in Trolliloes
There is no fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- Access to the cooking area
- The date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
- The number of people
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.
What we need to know
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Rough numbers
- Where the event is
For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or BN27 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
On the day, we arrive in good time to set up, so the grill is up to heat when you are ready to eat.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.
Before you choose a spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Parking near the grill
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
