Dulwich: your questions answered
What if our house in Dulwich has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can you do a barbecue in Dulwich Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cater in Dulwich?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, on site at your venue in Dulwich. We need a level, open area outdoors with room for the grill and a serving table.
How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Midweek dates are typically easier to get. Send us your details through our quote form.
What’s on your BBQ menu?
Burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
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.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Usually, yes: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Give us a rough number of children.
How our BBQ catering works in Dulwich
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. A catered barbecue takes all of that off your hands, so you can spend the time with your guests. Typical bookings include birthdays and milestone parties and team days and staff summer parties, serving pulled pork, coleslaw and chicken skewers.
From a family garden to an office courtyard, barbecues in Dulwich come in all shapes. Tell us how we get the equipment in, including steps, narrow gates and parking for our vehicle. All the barbecue, none of the effort: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Is a barbecue right for your event?
Compared with a DIY barbecue, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the food is cooked properly by people who do it every week. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why us?
- An itemised quote
- Our chef at the grill, not you
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
- Six meats to choose from
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the rest of the space to you.
China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.

If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like St Anthony's Catholic Primary School, a barbecue is a crowd-pleaser. Nearby historic houses include Kingswood House (1.1 miles south) and Queen's House (4 miles north-east). Estates like these tend to set strict rules for caterers, so check before booking.
Here we cover the SE22, SE21 and SE23 postcode area. Your event could be at a house on Court Lane, Druce Road and Boxall Road or the roads around them, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook.

What we serve, dish by dish
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Crunchy coleslaw suits barbecue food, while salads keep it light.
BBQ ribs
BBQ ribs bring a sticky, glazed favourite to the table; have napkins ready.
How it works
One of us cooks, the others serve, so service stays steady. After service, we clear up and pack away. A summer barbecue in Dulwich stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:05pm.

- Hot food is served through the agreed time.

Where the barbecue can go in Dulwich
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer
- A spot well clear of buildings
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
As a London location, Dulwich 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.
