BBQ catering for your event in Abbey Wood
Barbecue food is sociable food: the smell, the queue and the plates piled high. In Abbey Wood, we’ll set up where it suits your event. We serve chicken skewers, pulled pork and sausages, and we’re often booked for fundraising days and retirement do’s.
London gardens around Abbey Wood are frequently small and close to neighbours, so we look for a spot where smoke drifts away from windows and fences. Warn the neighbours: barbecue smoke travels. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

What comes off the grill
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, a hot, filling option of their own.
Pulled pork
Because it is slow-cooked, pulled pork is ready as soon as we start serving, which keeps the queue moving.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
Our chef cooks through the agreed service time, and our staff serve and keep the queue moving.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
