About our BBQ catering in Erith
Whether it’s twenty friends in a garden or a whole workforce in a car park, a barbecue can be planned around the size of your event. Tell us your rough numbers and we’ll plan the menu and service. Whether it’s birthdays and milestone parties and cricket, football and rugby club days, we can cook halloumi skewers, pulled pork and beef burgers.
Gardens in Erith tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so we look for a spot where smoke drifts away from windows and fences. A word with the neighbours beforehand always helps. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with raw and cooked food kept apart.

Working with your venue
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Before you choose a spot
A barbecue needs a level, open spot outdoors with cover. Here’s what we look for:
- The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer
- A clear way in from where we park
- A spot well clear of buildings
Erith 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.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Common questions in Erith
Can you do a barbecue in Wildspace Conservation Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Which station is closest to Erith?
Erith station, in Erith itself.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Is clearing up included?
We tidy the serving area, so there’s very little washing up. China is available on request.

Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, with halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do you label the food for allergies?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Can it be a sit-down meal?

Does rain stop the barbecue?
The cooking area is covered, so it is guests who need a wet-weather plan.
Erith barbecues: local tips
Erith is about 3 miles north-west of Dartford, in Greater London. We cover Erith and its neighbours for events. Erith is one of 764 places in Greater London where we cater. We cater events right across the region, from Erith to London (11 miles away).
Nearby historic houses include Hall Place and Gardens (2.3 miles south) and Red House (2.4 miles south-west). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on outside caterers and open cooking early. After a christening at a church such as Christ Church, a barbecue at home or a hall nearby is an easy way to feed everyone.
For events in DA8, DA17 and DA7, we just need to know where the barbecue can cook. Streets in the area include Church Road, Town Square and Erith High Street, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the barbecue. Close by, we cover events in Northumberland Heath (1 mile south), Bexley Riverside (1 mile south), Belvedere (1 mile north-west), Lessness Heath (1 mile north-west) and Barnehurst (1 mile south). Further out, we also cater in London (11 miles west), City of Westminster (14 miles west), Marylebone (14 miles west), St Pancras (13 miles west), Shoreditch (11 miles west) and Walthamstow (11 miles north-west).
Nearby you’ll also find Erith and District Hospital (under half a mile south-west) and Broadway Shopping Centre (1.9 miles south-west). Open spaces near Erith include Crossness Nature Reserve.

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
Running late? Let us know, and we will adjust where we can.
Ask about china for a sit-down meal, at extra cost.

How the day works
Grilled food is at its best when it’s hot, so we cook to order through service. Slow-cooked meats are ready as soon as service begins, so nobody waits for the first round. Autumn and winter barbecues in Erith get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:50pm by December. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
- We start with your date, venue and numbers.
- Choose your meats and sides.
- We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
- We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Tell us roughly how many children are coming
- Confirm your menu choices in good time
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
