What’s the nearest station to Highams Park?
Highams Park station, about 0.7 miles east of the centre.
Can you barbecue in bad weather?

You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.

A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Let us know about the site and we will confirm what we need.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes, and it is a popular combination. Ask and we’ll quote for the mix.
Will children like the BBQ?
Burgers and sausages are generally the children’s favourites, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Tell us roughly how many are coming.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Tell us if anyone does not eat beef
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
The barbecue goes where we agreed, so the event carries on around us.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Where the barbecue can go in Highams Park
Most outdoor spaces work for a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:
- A clear way in from where we park
- A spot where smoke will not blow into the house or marquee
- Room for a serving table next to the grill
As a London location, Highams Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

A catered barbecue compared with other options
Instead of asking a friend to man the grill, a catered barbecue means everyone gets to be a guest, and food safety is in professional hands. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
