  • Plates or china
  • Site access
  • Travel to Botany Bay
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays

Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.

For a quick, accurate price, send us:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • The venue or postcode
  • Anything the venue has asked for

Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.

Common questions in Botany Bay

Which station is closest to Botany Bay?

The closest is Crews Hill station, roughly 1 mile away.

Can you do a barbecue in Trent Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

How many meats should we choose?

Three or four meats plus the vegetarian and vegan options suits most groups. A shorter menu also speeds up service.

Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?

Yes. Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, and vegans get a vegan burger or sausage, cooked separately from the meat.

Do you do barbecues out of season?

We cook under cover, so the season doesn’t stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.

How far ahead should we book a barbecue?

Once your date is fixed, particularly for a summer weekend. Short notice is still worth a try: fill in our quote form.

Do you cover Botany Bay?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Botany Bay and the rest of Greater London included. Send us the address for a quote.

Do you provide china?

Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

For planners, venues and organisers

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.

Where the barbecue can go in Botany Bay

The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what we look for:

  • A spot where smoke will not blow into the house or marquee
  • Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
  • The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer

Botany Bay is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Planning a barbecue

Diets, allergies and alternatives

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

  • Think about who does not eat pork or beef when choosing the meats
  • Mention any guests who avoid beef
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Ask which items contain gluten

We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, so the event carries on around us.

China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.

About the food

Salads, coleslaw and potatoes

Choose from salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and jacket potatoes, to suit your event.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.

Why choose BBQ catering in Botany Bay?

Compared with a barbecue cooked by friends, a catered barbecue means everyone gets to be a guest, and food safety is in professional hands. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

Why us?

  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Planned to your running order
  • Six meats to choose from
  • Staff to serve, so you do not have to

See our prices page and our barbecue menu ideas.

How it works

We get there well ahead of food time, so the grill is hot by the time you want to eat. Your guests will smell it before they see it. Autumn and winter barbecues in Botany Bay get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:50pm by December. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.

  1. Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
  2. We check the cooking spot and quote.
  3. We set up under cover before service.
  4. Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about children’s numbers
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Send final numbers in good time

How to get a price
