About our BBQ catering in Limehouse
With BBQ catering, the barbecue, the food and the cooking are all on us. Our chef grills on site in Limehouse, under cover, and our staff serve and clear. We’re frequently asked to cater 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays and retirement do’s, serving beef brisket, sausages and beef burgers.
Gardens in Limehouse tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so placing the grill so smoke clears the houses matters. A word with the neighbours beforehand always helps. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with ordering takeaway, a barbecue becomes part of the event, and the grill becomes a gathering point. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Why Limehouse hosts choose us
- Our staff serve and clear
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option
- Six meats to choose from
- Add a hog roast alongside

What BBQ catering costs
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Plates or china
- Season and day of the week
- Numbers
- Travel to Limehouse
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Details that help
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Your date and serving time
- The address or postcode
- Dietary requirements
- An estimate of numbers
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
Step by step
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. That keeps everything hot and fresh. A summer barbecue in Limehouse stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. In late September, it’s dark by about 7:05pm.

- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- Hot food is served through the agreed time.
- We tidy up before we go.
Getting ready for the day
