Diets, allergies and alternatives

You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:

  • Give us numbers for the meat-free options
  • Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
  • Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
  • Let us know roughly how many children are coming

Running late? Let us know, and we’ll adjust where we can.

Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

Warninglid questions

Do you come out to small places like Warninglid?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

What’s the nearest station to Warninglid?

Balcombe station, about 3.6 miles north-east of the centre.

What if it rains?

The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.

When should we book?

Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.

What do children generally eat?

Usually, yes: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Give us a rough number of children.

Can we have a barbecue in winter?

Most barbecues are in summer, but we can cook in any season. Guests will want somewhere dry and warm.

Is there anything for vegans?

Yes: halloumi and vegetable skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage for vegans. Tell us numbers so there’s enough.

Should we have every meat?

You don’t need everything. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself

Instead of a takeaway delivery, a barbecue becomes part of the event, and the grill becomes a gathering point. What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

What you get with us

  • Served at the time you choose
  • Serving and clearing done for you
