A barbecue near North Finchley

BBQ catering in North Finchley, served hot

Barbecue food is sociable food: the smell, the queue and the plates piled high. We’ll find the right spot at your venue in North Finchley. Typical bookings include community fun days and fundraising days, serving beef brisket, chicken skewers and BBQ ribs.

In a London neighbourhood like North Finchley, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. If there’s no side passage, a rear gate or yard may work, and a photo helps us check. All the barbecue, none of the effort: we shop, cook, serve and clear.

What we serve, dish by dish

Chicken skewers

Chicken gives guests who do not eat pork or beef a meat option.

Sausages

Grilled until golden and cooked right through, they’re the easy crowd-pleaser.

How the day works

Our chef runs the grill while our staff serve, so service stays steady. After service, we clear up and pack away. For an evening barbecue in North Finchley, think about light: 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.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
  3. On the day we arrive in good time, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
  4. Our chef cooks and our staff serve at the agreed time.
  5. We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.

Getting ready for the day

  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

North Finchley questions

What’s the nearest station to North Finchley?

New Southgate station, about 1.4 miles east of the centre.

What if our house in North Finchley has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.

What if it rains?

The cooking area is covered, so it’s guests who need a wet-weather plan.

Do you clear up?

We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.

Do we have to eat from rolls?

Of course. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides; ask about china if you’d like it.

Can you do halal?

We do not. If guests need halal, arrange that separately; our vegetarian and vegan options are available.

Is crockery included?

Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

Do you need anything from us?

The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Tell us what’s available on site and we will confirm the rest when we quote.
