Planning a barbecue in Barnet
Barnet is in Greater London. Thinking about a catered barbecue in Barnet? We can help. We bring barbecues to 764 places across Greater London. We cater events right across the region, from Barnet to London (about 11 miles away).
Thinking of a barbecue in Highlands Gardens? Many parks ban barbecues, and catering needs the landowner’s permission, typically the council’s. After a christening at a church such as St John's United Reformed Church, a barbecue at home or a hall nearby is an easy way to feed everyone.
Here we cover the EN5, EN4, N20 and N11 postcode area, and we can cater your event anywhere in it. We can cater an event on streets such as Station Road, High Street and Sambroke Square or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. Barnet is on the B193 and A1081, so it’s easy for us to reach with the equipment. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Underhill (1 mile west), New Barnet (1 mile east), Monken Hadley (1 mile north-west), Hadley Wood (1 mile north-east) and Cockfosters (1 mile east). Further out, we also cater in London (11 miles south), City of Westminster (9 miles south), Marylebone (9 miles south), Kensington (10 miles south), St Pancras (9 miles south) and Shoreditch (10 miles south-east).
A little further out are Francis Skaryna Belarusian Library and Museum (2.1 miles south) and Spires Shopping Centre (0.9 miles north-west). Open spaces near Barnet include Darland's Lake and Greenhill Gardens.
- Local schools include Queen Elizabeth's Girls' School (0.6 miles north-west) and Susi Earnshaw Theatre School (0.7 miles north-west)
- Nearby, you will find The Railway Tavern (0.6 miles north-east)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include Barnet Urban District (0.6 miles north-west)
About the food
Pulled pork
Pulled pork is slow-cooked until it falls apart, piled into rolls, often with coleslaw.
Beef burgers
A burger is the barbecue classic, and they’re a safe bet for children and adults alike.
Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Planning the cooking spot
The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what helps:
- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
As a London location, Barnet is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: 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’ll say what we think before booking.
