Your questions about a catered barbecue in Northwood
Can you do a barbecue in King George V Playing Fields?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What if our house in Northwood has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
How many meats should we choose?
Not generally. Pick a mix of grilled and slow-cooked meats.
What’s on your BBQ menu?
You choose from burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.
Do you label the food for allergies?
We can label dishes at the serving table. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. The barbecue needs a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings and trees.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
Most barbecues are in summer, but we can cook in any season, with cover over the grill. Plan shelter for your guests.
Can you serve the barbecue on plates?
Of course. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides; ask about china if you’d like it.
BBQ catering for your event in Northwood
The point of a catered barbecue is that you get to enjoy it. Our chef cooks, our staff serve and we tidy up afterwards, while you look after your guests. Typical bookings include fundraising barbecues and community fun days, with BBQ ribs, halloumi skewers and chicken skewers.
Around Northwood, most London barbecues are in back gardens, yards, courtyards and car parks. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us about a rear gate, a front garden or a yard, and a photo helps us check. Everything is cooked through properly, with raw and cooked food kept apart.

Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
Northwood is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How the day works
When we arrive, we position the grill under cover and get it up to heat. From there, we cook as your guests come up, timed to when you want to eat. Autumn and winter barbecues in Northwood get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
- We start with your date, venue and numbers.
- Choose your meats and sides.
- We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
- We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack away and leave the area tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Keep the grill downwind of the seating
- Think about lights for the serving area after dark
- Tell us roughly how many children are coming
