A closer look at the menu
BBQ ribs
Sticky, glazed ribs are the messy treat of the menu; have napkins ready.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Next to a formal plated meal, a barbecue keeps things informal, and needs no kitchen at the venue. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book our barbecue in Summerstown
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
- Planned to your running order

Common questions in Summerstown
Can you get a barbecue into a London garden in Summerstown?
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.
Which station is closest to Summerstown?
Earlsfield station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.
Do you label the food for allergies?
We give you allergen information for every dish, and we will label the meat-free choices clearly.
Is the meat halal?
We don’t offer halal. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, or halal food can be arranged separately.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
What can we have at a catered barbecue?
Burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, ribs, pulled pork and brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
We can. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.
How many meats should we choose?
Not normally. Pick a mix of grilled and slow-cooked meats.
