BBQ catering in Hackney, served hot
Barbecue food is sociable food: the smell, the queue and the plates piled high. We’ll find the right spot at your venue in Hackney. Typical bookings include relaxed weddings and evening receptions and fundraising barbecues, with coleslaw, beef brisket and chicken skewers.
London gardens around Hackney are frequently small and close to neighbours, so we look for a spot where smoke drifts away from windows and fences. A word with the neighbours beforehand always helps. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

Where the barbecue can go in Hackney
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
- A spot well clear of buildings
Hackney 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.

Common questions in Hackney
What’s the nearest station to Hackney?
Hackney has its own station: Homerton station.
Could you cook in Clapton Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can you barbecue in bad weather?
We bring cover for the grill, but guests will want shelter too.
Is barbecued chicken safe?
Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with raw and cooked food kept apart, in line with Food Standards Agency guidance.
Can we have a barbecue in winter?
We cook under cover, so the season does not stop us. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.
Do you label the food for allergies?
Yes, ask us to label the food. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Should we have every meat?
You don’t need everything. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket and we will advise on the rest.
How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
The earlier the better for summer weekends. Weekday and off-season dates are often easier. Use our quote form.

Step by step
With cover over the grill, the weather rarely holds us up, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. In Hackney, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so an early-evening barbecue is usually in daylight.
- Start with the occasion, the date and the venue.
- We suggest a menu and send a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- Hot food is served through the agreed time.
- The serving area is cleared before we leave.
Preparing for the day
