Common questions in Whitchurch Hill

Is Whitchurch Hill too small for a barbecue?

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

How far is Whitchurch Hill from London?

About 42 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.

Do you cover Whitchurch Hill?

Yes, Whitchurch Hill is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.

Do you provide china?

We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.

Is a barbecue good for children?

Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, and a vegan sausage covers anyone who doesn’t eat meat. Let us know numbers for children.

Do you label the food for allergies?

Yes, ask us to label the food. Let us know about allergies before the day.

Is the meat halal?

No. If guests need halal, arrange that separately; our vegetarian and vegan options are available.

Where the barbecue can go in Whitchurch Hill

Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue if a few things are right. Check these:

  • A level lawn, patio or hard standing
  • A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
  • A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Planners, venues and businesses

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Tell us if anyone doesn’t eat beef
  • Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
  • Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
  • Let us know roughly how many children are coming

On the day, we arrive in good time to set up, so the grill is up to heat when you are ready to eat.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

How the day works

Our chef runs the grill while our staff serve, so the queue keeps moving. After service, we clear up and pack away. Evening barbecues in Whitchurch Hill need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:10pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.

  1. Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
  2. We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
  3. We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
  4. At food time, we cook and serve.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Think about lights for the serving area after dark
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Think about shelter for your guests
