A barbecue near Paddington

BBQ catering in Paddington, cooked on site

A home barbecue means hours at the grill and a pile of washing up. With BBQ catering, all of that is done for you, so you can spend the time with your guests. On the menu are pulled pork, sausages and beef burgers, and typical bookings are for community fun days and garden parties.

In a London neighbourhood like Paddington, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us about a rear gate, a front garden or a yard, and a picture helps us check. Everything is cooked through properly, with raw and cooked food kept apart.

What affects the price in Paddington

The price comes down to:

  • The journey to the venue
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • The number of people
  • Crockery choices

Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.

Details that help

For a quick, accurate price, tell us:

  • Roughly how many people
  • Your date and serving time
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • The venue or postcode

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs

We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:

  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Ask which items contain gluten
  • Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
  • Give us numbers for the meat-free options

Our staff keep the serving table tidy and topped up, right through the service.

Ask about china for a sit-down meal, quoted separately.

FAQs for Paddington

Could you cook in Royal Parks of London?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.

What if our house in Paddington has no side access?

Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

How soon do you get booked up?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.

Can you do a hog roast as well?

Yes. Many bigger events have both. Ask and we will quote for the mix.

Is there anything for vegans?

Yes. Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, and vegans get a vegan burger or sausage, cooked separately from the meat.

Do you come to Paddington?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Paddington and the rest of Greater London included. Send us the address for a quote.

Do you offer halal meat?

We don’t offer halal. Our meat-free options are there, or halal food would need to be arranged separately.

Do you leave the area tidy?

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

What the cooking area needs

A barbecue needs a level, open spot outdoors with cover. Here’s what we look for:

  • A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
  • Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
  • Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue

As a London location, Paddington 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Our BBQ planning guide

For event organisers in Paddington

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.

Is a barbecue right for your event?

Compared with a DIY barbecue, nobody you know spends the event at the grill, and the food is cooked properly by people who do it every week. What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

Why us?

  • An itemised quote
  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option
  • Sides to make it a full meal
  • Staff to serve, so you do not have to

The menu, dish by dish

Cooked through and browned on the grill, sausages are simple and satisfying.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we’ll plan the vegan burgers or sausages.

How it works

Our chef runs the grill while our staff serve, so the queue keeps moving. When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area. By late September, sunset in Paddington is about 7:05pm; in December it’s about 3:55pm. For a late-season barbecue, lunchtime is easiest.

  1. Tell us about your event: date, address and numbers.
  2. We check the cooking spot and quote.
  3. We set up under cover before service.
  4. At food time, we cook and serve.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us roughly how many children are coming
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
