Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself

Next to a hog roast, a barbecue offers more variety, which helps when some guests do not eat pork. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so some events have both. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.

What you get with us

  • Hot food straight off the grill
  • Meat-free choices on every menu
  • Served at the time you choose
  • No surprises: everything in writing

For planners, venues and organisers

If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.

How we price a catered barbecue

The price comes down to:

  • Whether you want china
  • Travel to The Burroughs
  • Site access
  • Season and day of the week

Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Details that help

When you enquire, it helps to include:

  • The address or postcode
  • The date and time of the event
  • Roughly how many people
  • Any dietary needs or allergies

Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.

Common questions in The Burroughs

What’s the nearest station to The Burroughs?

The closest is Hendon station, roughly 0.8 miles away.

Can you get a barbecue into a London garden in The Burroughs?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.

Will you clear up afterwards?

We bring plates and clear up after service.

When should we book?

Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.

What does the venue need to provide?

The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Let us know about the site and we’ll confirm what we need.

Do you cater for vegetarians?

Yes: halloumi and vegetable skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage for vegans. Tell us numbers so there’s enough.

Is BBQ catering only for summer?

The grill cooks under cover, so it works all year. Out of season, think about lighting and shelter for guests.

Do you clear up?

We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.

A catered BBQ in The Burroughs: what to know

The Burroughs is about 2 miles south-east of Burnt Oak, in Greater London. We are happy to travel to The Burroughs for events. We cover all 764 towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for London, about 8 miles away.

If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, a barbecue is a crowd-pleaser. Churches such as St Mary's Church rarely have room for a barbecue, but a hall or home nearby generally does.

We cover events in every part of NW4, NW9 and NW11. Streets in the area include Bell Lane, Eaton Road and Lodge Road, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the barbecue. You will find The Burroughs on the A41, which makes the journey straightforward. If your venue is just outside The Burroughs, we also cover Hendon (1 mile south-east), Colindale (1 mile west), Brent Cross (1 mile south-east), West Hendon (1 mile south-west) and The Hyde (1 mile south-west). Larger places within reach include London (8 miles south-east), City of Westminster (6 miles south-east), Marylebone (6 miles south-east), Kensington (6 miles south), St Pancras (6 miles south-east) and Shoreditch (8 miles south-east).

Other landmarks nearby include St Andrew's Hospital (1.9 miles south) and Municipal Borough of Hendon (less than half a mile south-west). Green spaces nearby include Parliament Hill and Darland's Lake.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

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

  • Give us numbers for the meat-free options
  • Collect dietary needs with the RSVPs
  • Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
  • Tell us about children’s numbers

We get there well before service, so the grill is up to heat when you’re ready to eat.

Ask about china for a sit-down meal, at extra cost.

Space, access and the venue

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

  • A spot well clear of buildings
  • Space for our vehicle nearby
  • A step-free route to wheel the equipment in

As a London location, The Burroughs 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

How the day works

The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower won’t stop it, but plan somewhere dry for people to eat. Evening barbecues in The Burroughs need a little planning: it is light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. Plan lights for the serving area after that.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
  3. On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and get the grill hot.
  4. Our chef cooks and our staff serve at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
