Questions from Upton Park
Which station is closest to Upton Park?
Woodgrange Park station, about 1.2 miles north of the centre.
Can you get a barbecue into a London garden in Upton Park?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
We can. The hog roast feeds a crowd at once, and the barbecue adds choice.
What do children typically eat?
Yes, generally: burgers and sausages in a roll are easy for small hands. Give us a rough number of children.
Do you cater for vegetarians?
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V) and a vegan burger or sausage (Ve). Let us know how many to expect.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Of course. A barbecue works as a plated meal with sides; ask about china if you’d like it.
Is BBQ catering only for summer?
Most barbecues are in summer, but we can cook in any season. Plan shelter for your guests.
Do you cook the barbecue on site?
Yes, on site at your venue in Upton Park. The barbecue needs a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings and trees.
About our BBQ catering in Upton Park
Whether it’s twenty friends in a garden or a whole workforce in a car park, a barbecue can be planned around the size of your event. Give us an idea of numbers and we’ll suggest a menu. Popular choices include pulled pork, coleslaw and BBQ ribs, and typical bookings are for retirement do’s and big birthday parties.
In a London neighbourhood like Upton Park, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. If there’s no side passage, a rear gate or yard may work, and a picture helps us check. All the barbecue, none of the effort: no shopping, no prep and no washing up.

Step by step
We get there well ahead of food time, so the grill is hot by the time you want to eat. The smell soon brings people over. Evening barbecues in Upton Park need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it goes at about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the serving area after that.
- Tell us what kind of event it is.
- You get a suggested menu and a price.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- Hot food is served through the agreed time.
- We tidy up before we go.
Getting ready for the day

Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
All the cooking and serving equipment comes with us, so you don’t need to find grills or tongs.
Pulled pork and brisket make the menu feel more substantial.
What comes off the grill
Beef burgers
Burgers cook quickly on the grill, so they keep the queue moving alongside the slow-cooked meats.
Beef brisket
Slow-cooked beef brisket, sliced to serve, for a more substantial plate.

The biggest factors are:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Travel to Upton Park
- Plates or china
- Season and day of the week
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Allergies we should know about
- Rough numbers
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and serving time
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Fill in our quote form.

A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with hiring a venue’s in-house menu, you pick the meats, the sides and the meat-free options yourself, and eat outdoors. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
What you get with us
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Add a hog roast alongside
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Meat-free choices on every menu
Read how we price or menu ideas for your barbecue.
Space, access and the venue
The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what helps:
- A green light from whoever owns the site
- Somewhere the smoke can drift away from open windows
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
Upton Park 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 are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
