About our BBQ catering in Bickley
Some hosts in Bickley pair a barbecue with a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. Ask and we will quote for both. For 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays and summer staff days, we can cook beef brisket, BBQ ribs and coleslaw and more.
In a London neighbourhood like Bickley, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us about a rear gate, a front garden or a yard, and send us a photo. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

Planners, venues and businesses
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

What BBQ catering costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The journey to the venue
- Plates or china
- How many people are eating
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Your date and serving time
- Allergies we should know about
- Any venue rules
- Rough numbers
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your event for a quote: use our quote form.
What the cooking area needs
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
- A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
Bickley 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 photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Bickley
Can you do a barbecue at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Which station is closest to Bickley?
Bickley has its own station: Bickley station.
Is the food cooked safely?
Cooking properly is our job: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.
Can you do halal?
No. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it; our vegetarian and vegan options are available.
How many meats should we choose?
Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. Fewer items keeps service quick.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
We can. A hog roast gives you a centrepiece and the barbecue adds variety.
Is clearing up included?
Yes, we clear up after service, so there’s very little washing up. China is available on request.
What does the venue need to provide?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Tell us what’s available on site and we’ll confirm the rest when we quote.
Step by step
Before service, we set up the grill and the serving table on the agreed spot. Then it’s a case of cooking and serving through the time you’ve chosen. At midsummer, it is light in Bickley until about 9:20pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. In late September, it’s dark by about 7:05pm.
