A barbecue near Oakthorpe Park

BBQ catering in Oakthorpe Park, cooked on site

There’s more to a catered barbecue than burgers: pulled pork, brisket and ribs turn it into a proper meal, with salads, coleslaw and potatoes on the side. Typical bookings include cricket, football and rugby club days and neighbourhood parties, with beef brisket, coleslaw and beef burgers.

In a London neighbourhood like Oakthorpe Park, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. If there is no side passage, a rear gate or yard may work, and a picture helps us check. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Common questions in Oakthorpe Park

What if our house in Oakthorpe Park has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

Could you cook in Broomfield Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Can we have a barbecue in winter?

The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.

Can you do halal?

No. Please arrange halal food separately if anyone needs it; our vegetarian and vegan options are available.

How far ahead should we book?

The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: use our quote form.

Do we have to eat from rolls?

Yes. Plates come as standard, with sides such as salads and potatoes.

Can you barbecue in bad weather?

The cooking area is covered, but guests will want shelter too.

Do you come to Oakthorpe Park?

Yes, Oakthorpe Park is in our area. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.

Planning for dietary needs

You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:

  • Mention any guests who avoid beef
  • Ask which items contain gluten
  • Tell us about children’s numbers
  • Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades

When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot tidy.

For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.

Planners, venues and businesses

For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.

Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

Space, access and the venue

The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what we look for:

  • Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
  • Space for the barbecue and a serving table
  • Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit

As a London location, Oakthorpe Park 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.

How it works

On the day, we position the grill under cover and get it up to heat. Then our chef cooks through the service time, timed to when you want to eat. Evening barbecues in Oakthorpe Park need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. After dark, the serving table needs lighting.

  1. We start with your date, venue and numbers.
  2. Choose your meats and sides.
  3. We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
  4. On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.
  5. We clear up and go.

Before we arrive

  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

  • Six barbecue meats to choose from
  • Meat-free choices cooked separately
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
