Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
Clapham 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.

How we price a catered barbecue
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel to Clapham
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Whether you want china
Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

- Rough numbers
- Rules from the venue or landowner
Send us the date, the address or SW4 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.
How it works
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we time our arrival around your serving time. That keeps everything hot and fresh. By late September, sunset in Clapham is about 7:05pm; in December it’s about 3:55pm. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Include children in your numbers
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Think about lights for the serving area after dark
How to get a price

Looking after everyone
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:

- Tell us about children’s numbers

On the day, we arrive in good time to set up, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Clapham
Can you get a barbecue into a London garden in Clapham?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Larkhall Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Tell us your numbers and we’ll suggest a split.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Yes. With salads and potatoes, it’s a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Six meats, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
What if it rains?
The cooking area is covered, but guests will want shelter too.
A catered barbecue compared with other options
Next to a formal plated meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and it doesn’t need a kitchen. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
