BBQ catering in Maryland, cooked on site
In Maryland, a barbecue is a favourite for relaxed events: familiar food, lots of choice and no formality. With us cooking, nobody you know spends the afternoon at the grill. Popular choices include sausages, halloumi skewers and BBQ ribs, and we’re regularly asked to cater summer parties in the garden and fundraising days.
In Maryland, the barbecue might go in a garden, a school playground or a works yard. Let us know about the route in. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

Where the barbecue can go in Maryland
The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what we look for:
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
As a London location, Maryland is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Planning a barbecue in Maryland
Maryland is about 3 miles south of Walthamstow, in Greater London. Planning a catered barbecue in Maryland? We cover the whole area. Maryland is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we cater.
If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Stratford Circus, a barbecue is a crowd-pleaser. If you had West Ham Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: barbecues are frequently restricted in parks.
Wherever your event is in E15, E20 and E7, we can bring the barbecue to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. From Cam Road, Ward Road and Wise Road or a nearby road, we can set up and cook there. For events just outside Maryland, we cover Stratford (1 mile west), East Village (1 mile north-west), Temple Mills (1 mile north-west), West Ham (1 mile south-east) and Holloway Down (1 mile north). Within a short drive, we also cover London (5 miles south-west), City of Westminster (7 miles west), Marylebone (6 miles west), Kensington (9 miles west), St Pancras (5 miles west) and Shoreditch (3 miles west).
Other landmarks nearby include Queen Mary's Hospital for the East End (less than half a mile east) and Tower of London (4 miles south-west). Within reach you will find Old Ford Island and Hollow Pond.
- Nearby schools include Carpenters Primary School (under half a mile south-west) and Sarah Bonnell School (less than half a mile east)
- Pubs nearby include The Two Puddings pub (under half a mile south-east)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include County Borough of West Ham (within half a mile south-east)
How the day works
The barbecue goes on the agreed spot, and the rest of the space is yours. Smoke drifts, so we’ll think about the wind with you. Evening barbecues in Maryland need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:05pm. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
How to prepare
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Tell us roughly how many children are coming

FAQs for Maryland
Which station is closest to Maryland?
Maryland has its own station: Stratford (London) station.
Could you cook in West Ham Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is the food cooked safely?
That’s one of the best reasons to have it catered: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.
What meats do you barbecue?
Burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
Summer is the busiest time, but we cook all year. Plan shelter for your guests.
When should we book BBQ catering?
The earlier the better for summer weekends. Weekday and off-season dates are often easier. Send us your details through our quote form.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
We bring cover for the grill, so it’s guests who need a wet-weather plan.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Yes, on plates with salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
