How our BBQ catering works in Fenn Street
The point of a catered barbecue is that you get to enjoy it. Our chef cooks, our staff serve and we tidy up afterwards, while you look after your guests.

Fenn Street barbecues: local tips
Fenn Street is about 5 miles north of Gillingham, in Medway. We are happy to travel to Fenn Street for events and the places nearby. Fenn Street is one of 68 towns and villages in Medway we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Fenn Street to Canterbury (about 24 miles away).
Churches such as Church of St Mary rarely have room for a barbecue, but a hall or home nearby normally does. If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like High Halstow Primary Academy, a barbecue is a crowd-pleaser.
Anywhere in ME3, we can cook on site for your guests. Whether your event is on Winterberry Avenue, Sharnal Street and Parbrook Road or a nearby road, we’ll bring the barbecue to you.

About 29 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Fenn Street?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Yes. Our chef cooks outdoors, under cover, at your event, with our staff serving and clearing.

Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Midweek dates are normally easier to get. Send us your details through our quote form.

Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Will children like the BBQ?
Yes, generally: simple food in a roll suits most children. Give us a rough number of children.

What we serve, dish by dish
Pulled pork
A pulled pork roll is a barbecue favourite.
Sausages
Children usually head straight for the sausages, and they’re easy to eat standing up.
How it works
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we time our arrival around your serving time. It means food comes off the grill hot. Evening barbecues in Fenn Street need a little planning: it is light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:00pm in late September. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a quote with the menu.
- We set up under cover before service.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
Getting a price
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
