BBQ catering in Tolworth, served hot

Food from a barbecue is best eaten hot off the grill, which is why we cook and serve as your guests come up. Tell us when you’d like to eat and we’ll plan around it. Popular choices include beef burgers, coleslaw and pulled pork, and we’re regularly asked to cater back-garden get-togethers and evening wedding food.

London gardens around Tolworth are frequently small and close to neighbours, so placing the grill so smoke clears the houses matters. Warn the neighbours: barbecue smoke travels. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.

Where the barbecue can go in Tolworth

The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what helps:

  • Permission from the venue or landowner
  • Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue
  • Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows

Tolworth is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

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

A barbecue or other catering?

Next to a formal plated meal, a barbecue is relaxed and sociable, and it doesn’t need a kitchen. Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.

Why book with us

  • Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
  • Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
  • Our chef at the grill, not you
  • Staff to serve, so you don’t have to

A closer look at the menu

BBQ ribs

For guests who love barbecue, the ribs are frequently the highlight.

Beef burgers

No barbecue is complete without burgers, loved by most ages.

Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Think about who does not eat pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
  • Ask about allergies when guests reply
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Tell us if anyone does not eat beef

All the cooking and serving equipment comes with us, so you do not need to find grills or tongs.

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

The process

Our chef runs the grill while our staff serve, so service stays steady. When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area. For an evening barbecue in Tolworth, think about light: 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. We start with your date, venue and numbers.
  2. Choose your meats and sides.
  3. We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
  4. We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We clear up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm your menu choices in good time
  • Send final numbers in good time
  • Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

A catered BBQ in Tolworth: what to know

Tolworth is about 2 miles north-west of Ewell, in Greater London. Tolworth is well within our area for events and the places nearby. We bring barbecues to all 764 towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater events right across the region, from Tolworth to London (about 11 miles away).

No room at home? A club near Tolworth with a terrace or field can be a good alternative. Churches such as Emmanuel rarely have room for a barbecue, but a hall or home nearby usually does.

For events in KT5, KT6 and KT3, we just need to know where the barbecue can cook and a serving time. Local streets include Pyne Road, Ewell Road and Derby Road; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Berrylands (1 mile north), Old Malden (1 mile south-east), Surbiton (1 mile north-west), Worcester Park (1 mile south-east) and Chessington (2 miles south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover London (11 miles north-east), City of Westminster (11 miles north-east), Marylebone (11 miles north-east), Kensington (9 miles north-east), St Pancras (12 miles north-east) and Shoreditch (13 miles north-east).

Well-known places in the area include Tolworth Hospital (0.5 miles south-west) and Municipal Borough of Surbiton (0.9 miles south-west). The countryside around Tolworth includes Southwood Open Space and The Lake.

  • Nearby schools include Richard Challoner School (0.7 miles east) and Shrewsbury House School (1.1 miles west)

What BBQ catering costs

Each price is built from:

  • Plates or china
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Distance from us
  • How easy it is to reach the spot

Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:

  • Allergies we should know about
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • An estimate of numbers
  • Your date and serving time

For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or KT5 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Send us your details through our quote form.

Tolworth: your questions answered

Can you do a barbecue in Hogsmill LNR?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.

What’s the nearest station to Tolworth?

Tolworth station, about 0.5 miles south of the centre.

Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?

Yes: halloumi and vegetable skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage for vegans. Let us know how many to expect.

Can you label vegetarian and vegan food?

We can label dishes at the serving table. Let us know about allergies before the day.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes, on site at your venue in Tolworth. The barbecue needs a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings and trees.

Is barbecued chicken safe?

Cooking properly is our job: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.

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.

What can we have at a catered barbecue?

Six meats, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Three or four meats is plenty for most groups.

  • Cooked on site by our chef, outdoors under cover
  • A full barbecue menu, not just burgers
  • Vegetarian and vegan options: halloumi skewers and a vegan burger or sausage
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
