How our BBQ catering works in North End
For bigger events in North End, a barbecue can sit alongside a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. Ask and we’ll quote for both. Typical bookings include fundraising barbecues and school fairs and summer fêtes, with beef burgers, BBQ ribs and halloumi skewers.
Gardens in North End 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. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in North End
Which station is closest to North End?
The closest is Hampstead Heath station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
Can you do a barbecue in Childs Hill Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cater in North End?

Do you offer halal meat?
No. If guests need halal, arrange that separately; our vegetarian and vegan options are available.

We can label dishes at the serving table. Let us know about allergies before the day.
Is there anything for vegans?
We do. There is a halloumi option and a vegan option, cooked separately from the meat.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.

Normally, yes: simple food in a roll suits most children. Give us a rough number of children.
What comes off the grill

A catered BBQ in North End: what to know
North End is about 1 mile north of Greenhill, in Greater London. North End is well within our area for events and the places nearby. We bring barbecues to 764 places in Greater London. You can also see our page for London, about 6 miles away.
Nearby historic houses include Heath House (within half a mile south) and Kenwood House (0.6 miles east). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on outside caterers and open cooking early. Thinking of a barbecue in Childs Hill Park? Many parks ban barbecues, and catering needs the landowner’s permission, usually the council’s.
For events in NW3, NW11 and N2, we just need to know where the barbecue can cook and roughly how many guests. Local streets include Sandy Road, Park Avenue and Platt's Lane; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. North End is on the A502, so it’s easy for us to reach with the equipment. For events just outside North End, we cover Vale of Health (1 mile south-east), Childs Hill (1 mile south-west), Golders Green (1 mile north-west), Greenhill (1 mile south) and West Hampstead (1 mile south). Further out, we also cater in London (6 miles south-east), City of Westminster (4 miles south), Marylebone (4 miles south-east), Kensington (5 miles south), St Pancras (4 miles south-east) and Shoreditch (5 miles south-east).

Planning help
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
North End is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef when choosing the meats
Slow-cooked meats such as pulled pork and brisket are ready to serve from the start, which takes the pressure off the grill.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
A catered barbecue compared with other options
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so some events have both. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Why us?
- Add a hog roast alongside
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Our chef at the grill, not you
- Six meats to choose from
