BBQ catering in Chelsea, served hot
From a small family gathering to a big club day, a catered barbecue scales to the occasion. Give us an idea of numbers and we will suggest a menu. For club open days and informal weddings, we’ll put together a menu of chicken skewers, BBQ ribs and beef brisket for your guests.
Around Chelsea, most London barbecues are in back gardens, yards, courtyards and car parks. If there is no side passage, a rear gate or yard may work, and send us a photo. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Chelsea
Which station is closest to Chelsea?
The closest is London Victoria station, roughly 1 mile away.
Can you get a barbecue into a London garden in Chelsea?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Do you offer halal meat?
We don’t offer halal. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.
Is there anything for vegans?
Yes. There is a halloumi option and a vegan option.
What meats do you barbecue?
Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
We cook under cover, so the season doesn’t stop us. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
Yes. A hog roast gives you a centrepiece and the barbecue adds variety.
The process
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower will not stop it, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. Autumn and winter barbecues in Chelsea get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. For a late-season barbecue, lunchtime is easiest.

What affects the price in Chelsea
There’s no fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- The journey to the venue
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Crockery choices

Planning a barbecue in Chelsea
Chelsea is about 2 miles south-east of Kensington, in Greater London. Events in Chelsea are part of our patch, as well as the surrounding area. We bring barbecues to 764 places across Greater London.
If the day starts at a church like Former Welsh Congregational Church, the barbecue can be ready at a hall or garden close by. Summer fairs and sports days, for a school such as Oratory Roman Catholic Primary School, often want a barbecue.
Wherever your event is in SW3, SW10, SW1X and SW1W, we can bring the barbecue to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. That could mean an event in a garden on Markham Square, Wellington Square and Tedworth Square or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. Chelsea sits on or near the B302 and B304, so getting the barbecue to your event is simple. If your venue is just outside Chelsea, we also cover Brompton (1 mile north), South Kensington (1 mile west), Little Chelsea (1 mile south-west), Belgravia (1 mile north-east) and World's End (1 mile south-west). We also serve nearby towns such as London (3 miles east), St Pancras (3 miles north-east), Shoreditch (5 miles north-east), Walthamstow (9 miles north-east), Hoxton (5 miles north-east) and Whitechapel (5 miles north-east).
Other landmarks nearby include Berkshire & Westminster Dragoons Museum (under half a mile east) and Westminster St Margaret and St John (1.6 miles north-east). The countryside around Chelsea includes Campden Hill and Battersea Park Lake.
- Schools near Chelsea include St Thomas More RC Language College (less than half a mile north-east) and Hellenic College of London (0.5 miles north)
- Pubs nearby include Markham Arms Public House (within half a mile east)
- Local facilities include Natural History Museum Library and Archives (0.7 miles north-west)
A closer look at the menu
BBQ ribs
For guests who love barbecue, the ribs are often the highlight.
Pulled pork
A pulled pork roll is a barbecue favourite.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
Running late? Let us know, and we will work around it where possible.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.
Working with your venue
If you are a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.
A barbecue or other catering?
Next to a buffet, everything is hot and freshly cooked, and nothing sits out all afternoon. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
