Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, yards, car parks and fields can take a barbecue if a few things are right. A quick checklist:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
As a London location, Selhurst is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Your questions about a catered barbecue in Selhurst
What if our house in Selhurst has no side access?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
What’s the nearest station to Selhurst?
Norwood Junction station, in Selhurst itself.
Do you offer halal meat?
No, we do not offer halal meat. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
We can. A hog roast gives you a centrepiece and the barbecue adds variety.
What do you need from the venue?
A level, open spot outdoors for the grill, with room for a serving table and a way in for our equipment. Let us know about the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
When should we book BBQ catering?
As soon as you know the date, particularly for a summer weekend. But ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. In winter, plan lighting and somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
What happens on the day
Most barbecue food is cooked through service, so we arrive ahead of food time and cook to demand. That keeps everything hot and fresh. At midsummer, it’s light in Selhurst until about 9:20pm, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:05pm.

- Pick the menu with us.
- We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
- On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.

Getting ready for the day

How to get a price
It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Planning help
Organising for someone else?
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

A catered barbecue compared with other options
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, which helps when some guests don’t eat pork. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so some events have both. What you choose to eat matters most: burgers and sausages cost less than brisket and ribs, so the quote shows each choice. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.
