About our BBQ catering in Hampstead
With BBQ catering, the barbecue, the food and the cooking are all on us. We cook on site at your event in Hampstead, outdoors under cover, while our staff serve your guests and tidy up. Whether it is community fun days and retirement do’s, we will put together a menu of pulled pork, BBQ ribs and beef brisket and more.
In a London neighbourhood like Hampstead, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us about a rear gate, a front garden or a yard, and send us a photo. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Barbecues in Hampstead: gardens, clubs and local tips
Hampstead is about 3 miles north-west of City of Westminster, in Greater London. We are happy to travel to Hampstead for events and the places nearby. Hampstead is one of 764 places in Greater London where we cater.
Nearby historic houses include Fenton House (less than half a mile north) and Keats House (0.6 miles east). Estates like these tend to set strict rules for caterers, so check before you book. A green space like Kilburn Grange Park is tempting, but a catered barbecue there needs the landowner’s say-so.
Anywhere in NW3, NW6, NW11 and N2, we can cook on site for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Local streets include Hampstead High Street, New End Square and The Mount Square; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Main roads around Hampstead include the A1 and A502, so getting the barbecue to your event is simple. Close by, we cover events in Greenhill (1 mile north-east), West Hampstead (1 mile west), Fortune Green (1 mile west), Vale of Health (1 mile north) and South Hampstead (1 mile south). We also serve nearby towns such as London (5 miles south-east), City of Westminster (3 miles south-east), Marylebone (3 miles south-east), Kensington (4 miles south), St Pancras (3 miles south-east) and Shoreditch (5 miles south-east). Being one of Greater London’s larger places, Hampstead has plenty of venues, halls and workplaces.
Other landmarks nearby include New End Hospital (under half a mile north) and O2 Centre (under half a mile south). Green spaces nearby include Belsize Wood and The Long Water.
- Schools near Hampstead include St Anthony's Preparatory School (under half a mile east) and South Hampstead High School (0.5 miles south)
- Pubs nearby include King William IV Public House (under half a mile north-east)
- Local facilities include Frognal and Fitzjohns (less than half a mile north-west) and Cecil Sharp House (1.7 miles south-east)
Hampstead: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Hampstead?
Hampstead has its own station: Finchley Road & Frognal station.
Can you do a barbecue in Kilburn Grange Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Is barbecued chicken safe?
Cooking properly is our job: separate equipment for raw and cooked food, and everything cooked through.
Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?
Yes: halloumi and vegetable skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage for vegans. Tell us numbers so there’s enough.
Can we have a barbecue in winter?
Most barbecues are in summer, but we can cook in any season, with cover over the grill. Plan shelter for your guests.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve, and we’ll label the meat-free choices clearly.
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.
Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
Hampstead 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with a sit-down meal, a barbecue keeps things informal, and it doesn’t need a kitchen. The menu makes a big difference to the price: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.
Why book with us
- Pair it with a hog roast if you like
- Hot food straight off the grill
- An itemised quote
- Sides to make it a full meal

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

- Ask which items contain gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
We get there well before service, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.
Step by step
When we arrive, we position the grill under cover and get it up to heat. From there, we cook as your guests come up, worked around your serving time. Sunset in Hampstead is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so an early-evening barbecue is typically in daylight.
- Start with the date, the venue and roughly how many.
- We check the cooking spot and quote.
- We arrive in good time and get the barbecue hot.
- Our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
