Your questions about a catered barbecue in Newington Green
Can you do a barbecue in Highbury Fields?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What if our house in Newington Green has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
How far ahead should we book a barbecue?
As soon as you know the date, especially for June to September. But ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
Most barbecues are in summer, but we can cook in any season, with cover over the grill. Plan shelter for your guests.
What does the venue need to provide?
Mostly space and access: a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings, with cover over the grill. We will check anything else with you.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Tell us your numbers and we’ll suggest a split.
Is clearing up included?
Yes, we clear up after service, so there is very little washing up. China is available on request.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Check which rolls and sauces contain gluten
- Think about who doesn’t eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
We bring everything we need to cook and serve, so there is no need to borrow a grill.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
- Grilled at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Six barbecue meats to choose from
- Meat-free choices cooked separately
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
