Why choose BBQ catering in Barnehurst?

Compared with hiring a venue’s in-house menu, you pick the meats, the sides and the meat-free options yourself, and eat outdoors. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

Why book with us

  • Six meats to choose from
  • Served at the time you choose
  • Meat-free choices on every menu
  • Hot food straight off the grill

How our BBQ catering works in Barnehurst

For bigger events in Barnehurst, a barbecue can sit alongside a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. Ask and we will quote for both. Whether it is close and cul-de-sac parties and relaxed weddings and evening receptions, we will put together a menu of chicken skewers, coleslaw and beef burgers and more.

London gardens around Barnehurst are often small and close to neighbours, so placing the grill so smoke clears the houses matters. A word with the neighbours beforehand always helps. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with raw and cooked food kept apart.

How to plan a catered barbecue

Barnehurst questions

Can you get a barbecue into a London garden in Barnehurst?

Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.

Can you do a barbecue in Braeburn Park?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Is the food cooked safely?

Cooking properly is our job: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.

What if it rains?

The cooking area is covered, so it’s guests who need a wet-weather plan.

Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V) and a vegan burger or sausage (Ve). Let us know how many to expect.

Do you provide china?

We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. We need a level, open area outdoors with room for the grill and a serving table.

Can you do halal?

No, we do not offer halal meat. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.

About the food

Beef burgers

No barbecue is complete without burgers, and they’re a safe bet for children and adults alike.

Sausages

Children generally head straight for the sausages.

A catered BBQ in Barnehurst: what to know

Among the historic houses close to Barnehurst are Hall Place and Gardens (1 mile south-west) and Red House (1.7 miles west).

Events anywhere in DA7, DA1 and DA8 start with an outdoor spot for the barbecue and roughly how many guests. From Old Road, Grove Road and Manor Road or a nearby road, we can set up and cook there.

Organising for someone else?

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.

Looking after everyone

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

  • Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
  • Tell us about children’s numbers
  • Add a dietary question to the invitation
  • Give us numbers for the meat-free options

We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the rest of the space to you.

Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.

Prices and what affects them

The biggest factors are:

  • Crockery choices
  • Season and day of the week
  • Numbers
  • Travel to Barnehurst

What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

Getting an accurate quote

To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:

  • The venue or postcode
  • Allergies we should know about
  • The date and time of the event
  • An estimate of numbers

We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Tell us about your event for a quote: use our quote form.

How it works

The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower won’t stop it, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. In Barnehurst, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.

  1. We start with your date, venue and numbers.
  2. Choose your meats and sides.
  3. We check the space and quote.
  4. On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.
  5. We clear up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Think about shelter for your guests
  • Keep the grill downwind of the seating

What the cooking area needs

A barbecue needs a level, open spot outdoors with cover. Here’s what we look for:

  • A green light from whoever owns the site
  • Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
  • Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue

Barnehurst is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

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