BBQ catering for your event in Bopeep

Gardens in Bopeep tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so we look for a spot where smoke drifts away from windows and fences. Warn the neighbours: barbecue smoke travels. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Instead of asking a friend to man the grill, a catered barbecue means everyone gets to be a guest, and the food is cooked by people who do it every week. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Why book our barbecue in Bopeep
- Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
- Meat-free choices on every menu
- Our staff serve and clear
- Six meats to choose from
How the day works
The barbecue goes on the agreed spot, and the rest of the space is yours. Smoke drifts, so we will think about the wind with you. A summer barbecue in Bopeep stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. In late September, it’s dark by about 7:05pm.
- Show us the space.
- We check it and send a price.
- We grill outdoors at your event.
- Our team serves hot food through the agreed time.
- We clear up so you don’t have to.
How to prepare
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Think about lights for the serving area after dark

Before you choose a spot
A barbecue needs a level, open spot outdoors with cover. Here’s what helps:
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
- Somewhere for us to park close to the cooking spot
As a London location, Bopeep is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Bopeep questions
Do you cater at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
What if our house in Bopeep has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
We bring cover for the grill, so it’s guests who need a wet-weather plan.
Can we have a barbecue in winter?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We tidy the serving area, so there is very little washing up. Ask if you’d like china.
Is the food cooked safely?
Cooking properly is our job: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Do you offer halal meat?
We don’t. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it.
