A barbecue near Furzedown

BBQ catering in Furzedown, cooked on site

A barbecue suits mixed groups well, with beef, chicken and pork on the menu, plus halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan burger or sausage. On the menu are beef brisket, pulled pork and BBQ ribs, and we’re frequently booked for summer staff days and neighbourhood parties.

London gardens around Furzedown are often small and close to neighbours, so placing the grill so smoke clears the houses matters. A word with the neighbours beforehand always helps. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Is a barbecue right for your event?

Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and it does not need a kitchen. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

What you get with us

  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • Cooked on site by our chef
  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Meat-free choices on every menu

Before you choose a spot

A barbecue needs a level, open spot outdoors with cover. Here’s what helps:

  • Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
  • Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
  • The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer

Furzedown is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the price in Furzedown

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Whether you want china
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The number of people

Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

What to tell us

For a quick, accurate price, tell us:

Common questions in Furzedown

What if our house in Furzedown has no side access?

Often, if there is 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 Figge's Marsh?

Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.

What does the venue need to provide?

Mostly space and access: a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings, with cover over the grill. We will check anything else with you.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. Our chef cooks outdoors, under cover, at your event, and our staff serve and clear.

How far ahead should we book a barbecue?

The earlier the better for summer weekends. Weekday and off-season dates are frequently easier. Use our quote form.

Can you cater in Furzedown?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Furzedown and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.

Will children like the BBQ?

Usually, yes: simple food in a roll suits most children. Give us a rough number of children.

When should we book?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.

For event organisers in Furzedown

Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

Step by step

A barbecue is cooked as people eat, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. It means food comes off the grill hot. A summer barbecue in Furzedown stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:05pm.

  1. Send a photo of where the barbecue could go.
  2. We confirm it works and send a quote.
  3. We grill outdoors at your event.
  4. Our team serves hot food through the agreed time.
  5. We leave the spot tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Name a contact for the day
  • Plan lighting if the barbecue runs into the evening
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before

Getting a price
