How to Choose a BBQ Menu
Start with the dishes, then use the published starting prices to compare your shortlist for a Peterborough BBQ.

Budget for the food and the full plan.
Use published starting rates as a comparison point, then identify the event details that need a written price.
Begin with the published food rates.
| Main menu | Published starting food price |
|---|---|
| Essential BBQ | £14.95 per person |
| Classic BBQ | £17.95 per person |
| Signature BBQ | £22.95 per person |
Each main menu has three grilled items per person, four salads, bread, butter and relishes. Compare the actual dish lists before choosing on price alone. The separate street-food menu has a quote-based base price; do not attach one of these rates to it.
The planner can show an indicative food starting-price calculation for your guest count. It does not establish a final total, an agreed minimum spend, children’s rates or the cost of a changed menu.
List the questions around the meal.
Record your serving times, venue location, access restrictions and equipment requirements. Ask the quote to say what is included for staffing, travel and service. If the venue supplies equipment or facilities, check any separate venue charges with it rather than assuming they are included in the catering price.
Extras need their own scope. The published street-food sides and dessert options start at £3 per person extra each, but the selected option and service arrangements still need confirmation. Do not combine those figures into a bespoke package or transfer them automatically to another menu.
Keep comparisons consistent.
- Compare the same expected guest number.
- Compare the same service window and group arrangements.
- List the exact dishes and any requested extras.
- Record equipment or facilities supplied by someone else.
- Read all inclusions, charges and payment terms in the written quote.
The business is not VAT registered; no VAT is added to its quoted prices. A lower food starting rate can still describe a different overall event brief from another quote. Resolve any missing responsibility or unspecified charge before treating the budget as agreed. Browsing, a local planning brief and an enquiry do not reserve an event date.
