How our BBQ catering works in Putney Vale

With BBQ catering, the barbecue, the food and the cooking are all on us. We cook on site at your event in Putney Vale, outdoors under cover, while our staff serve your guests and tidy up. Whether it’s garden parties and engagement and anniversary parties, we can cook chicken skewers, halloumi skewers and coleslaw for your guests.

London gardens around Putney Vale are often small and close to neighbours, so we look for a spot where smoke drifts away from windows and fences. A word with the neighbours beforehand always helps. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

What comes off the grill

BBQ ribs

Sticky, glazed ribs are the messy treat of the menu; have napkins ready.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.

The process

Barbecue food is best straight off the grill, so we cook and serve through the agreed time. Slow-cooked meats are ready as soon as service begins, which keeps the queue moving. A summer barbecue in Putney Vale stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a barbecue a long summer evening. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:05pm.

  1. Send us the date, the place and roughly how many.
  2. Pick the menu with us.
  3. We check the space and quote.
  4. We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We pack away and leave the area tidy.

How to prepare

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Plan lighting if the barbecue runs into the evening

Questions from Putney Vale

What’s the nearest station to Putney Vale?

Raynes Park station, about 2 miles south-east of the centre.

Can you get a barbecue into a London garden in Putney Vale?

Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.

Do you provide china?

We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

How far ahead should we book a barbecue?

Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Weekday and off-season dates are often easier. Fill in our quote form.

Should we have every meat?

Not usually. Mix quick-grilled items with pulled pork or brisket and we’ll advise on the rest.

Can you cater in Putney Vale?

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

Do you clear up?

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

Will children like the BBQ?

Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, with a vegan sausage for any vegetarian children. Tell us roughly how many are coming.

Before you choose a spot

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

  • A spot where smoke won’t blow into the house or marquee
  • A level lawn, patio or hard standing
  • Permission from the venue or landowner

Putney Vale is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: 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.

For events in SW15, KT2 and SW19, we just need to know where the barbecue can cook and roughly how many guests.

Organising for someone else?

If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:

  • Add a dietary question to the invitation
  • Ask which items contain gluten
  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
  • Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades

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

Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes for a full meal.
