How our BBQ catering works in Chessington
There is something about a barbecue that gets people talking: the smell, the queue and the plates piled high. In Chessington, we will set up where it suits your event. Popular choices include pulled pork, coleslaw and sausages, and typical bookings are for retirement do’s and summer staff days.
In a London neighbourhood like Chessington, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. If there’s no side passage, a rear gate or yard may work, and send us a photo. You get a barbecue without the work: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.

A barbecue or other catering?
Next to doing the barbecue yourself, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the cooking is in experienced hands. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why book with us
- A clear quote with everything listed
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Cooked on site by our chef
- Serving and clearing done for you
What we serve, dish by dish
Beef brisket
Brisket makes a barbecue feel like a proper meal.
Beef burgers
Burgers cook quickly on the grill, which helps at busy times alongside the slow-cooked meats.
What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
- A spot where smoke will not blow into the house or marquee
- A wet-weather plan for your guests
As a London location, Chessington 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 photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
