BBQ catering for your event in Pimlico

Some of the best barbecues are the ones where the host gets to sit down. We look after the grill, the serving and the clearing, while you look after your guests. We serve beef burgers, pulled pork and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for close and cul-de-sac parties and club open days.

From a family garden to an office courtyard, barbecues in Pimlico come in all shapes. Tell us how we get the equipment in. All the barbecue, none of the effort: we shop, cook, serve and clear.

How it works

On the day, 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. By late September, sunset in Pimlico is about 7:05pm; in December it’s about 3:55pm. For a late-season barbecue, lunchtime is easiest.

  1. Start with the occasion, the date and the venue.
  2. We suggest a menu and send a quote.
  3. We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
  4. We serve as people come up.
  5. We tidy up before we go.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us roughly how many children are coming
  • Let us know about tight access
  • Think about shelter for your guests

Prices and what affects them

Things that change the price:

  • Crockery choices
  • The date and time of year
  • Numbers
  • Access to the cooking area

When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

What we need to know

When you contact us, please mention:

  • Allergies we should know about
  • The address or postcode
  • Rough numbers
  • Any venue rules

Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we will quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.

What the cooking area needs

Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue with a little planning. A quick checklist:

  • Somewhere for us to park close to the cooking spot
  • A level lawn, patio or hard standing
  • Permission from the venue or landowner

As a London location, Pimlico is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:

  • Ask about allergens in glazes and sauces
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Let us know roughly how many children are coming
  • Tell us if anyone does not eat beef

After service, our staff clear up, leaving the spot tidy.

A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
