Organising for someone else?
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
BBQ catering in Langley, served hot
A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. With BBQ catering, all of that is done for you, so you can enjoy your own event. For close and cul-de-sac parties and summer staff days, we can cook BBQ ribs, pulled pork and halloumi skewers.
Around Langley, a garden with room to spare is all you need. It suits that kind of day, with nobody you know stuck at the grill. Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with separate equipment for raw and cooked food.
Questions from Langley
Which station is closest to Langley?
Langley station, about 0.5 miles east of the centre.
Can you do a barbecue in Ditton Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Of course. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides; ask about china if you’d like it.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: use our quote form.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
Yes, we clear up after service, so there’s very little washing up. Ask if you’d like china.
How soon do barbecue dates go?
Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Weekday and off-season dates are often easier. Send us your details through our quote form.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Is a barbecue good for children?
Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Tell us roughly how many are coming.

What happens on the day
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower will not stop it, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. Evening barbecues in Langley need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:05pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.

- We suggest a menu and send a quote.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- We serve as people come up.
- We tidy up before we go.
