BBQ catering for your event in Little London
A good barbecue is about more than burgers: slow-cooked pulled pork, sliced beef brisket and glazed ribs make it feel like a meal, served with salads, coleslaw and potatoes. We’re frequently asked to cater leaving parties and school fairs and summer fêtes, serving chicken skewers, BBQ ribs and pulled pork.
Near Little London, barbecues often happen in gardens and fields. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.
What BBQ catering costs
There’s no fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:
- The date and time of year
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Numbers
- The journey to the venue
Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What we need to know
These are the details we need:
- An estimate of numbers
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Where the event is
- The date and time of the event
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.
The process
If timings shift on the day, let your contact know, and we will adjust where we can. Barbecue food is cooked through service, so it’s flexible. Sunset in Little London is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm 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 space and send a quote with the menu.
- We set up under cover before service.
- At food time, we cook and serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Pick a spot where smoke blows away from guests
- Plan lighting if the barbecue runs into the evening
Getting a price
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.

FAQs for Little London
Which station is closest to Little London?
Andover station, about 2.9 miles south-west of the centre.
Is Little London too small for a barbecue?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can we have a barbecue in winter?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Is there anything for vegans?
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V) and a vegan burger or sausage (Ve). Tell us numbers so there is enough.
Is barbecued chicken safe?
Our chef cooks everything thoroughly, with raw and cooked food kept apart, in line with Food Standards Agency guidance.
Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Let us know about allergies before the day.
Will you clear up afterwards?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Yes, on plates with salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the moment service begins, which takes the pressure off the grill.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- Somewhere for us to park close to the cooking spot
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
