BBQ catering in West Hackney, served hot

A barbecue is one of the easiest ways to feed a crowd in West Hackney: familiar food, lots of choice and no formality. With us cooking, nobody you know spends the afternoon at the grill. Whether it’s 18th, 21st, 40th and 50th birthdays and close and cul-de-sac parties, we can cook sausages, pulled pork and chicken skewers and more.

In West Hackney, the barbecue might go in a garden, a school playground or a works yard. Tell us how we get the equipment in. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls.

How we price a catered barbecue

We work out each quote from:

  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The number of people
  • Travel to West Hackney
  • Crockery choices

What you choose to eat matters most: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Where the event is
  • Dietary requirements
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Rules from the venue or landowner

Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.

Looking after everyone

We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:

  • Give us numbers for the meat-free options
  • Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Ask which items contain gluten

We set up on the spot we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the rest of the space to you.

For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.

Planning a barbecue in West Hackney

West Hackney is about 4 miles north of London, in Greater London. We cover West Hackney and its neighbours for events. West Hackney is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover.

Churches such as St Michael and All Angels rarely have room for a barbecue, but a hall or home nearby usually does. If you had Stoke Newington Common in mind, ask the council or landowner first: barbecues are frequently restricted in parks.

Wherever your event is in N16, E5 and E8, we can bring the barbecue to you. Local streets include Muir Road, Burma Road and Piano Lane; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Being close to the A107, West Hackney is simple for us to get to for your event. Close by, we cover events in Shacklewell (1 mile south), Stoke Newington (1 mile west), Clapton (1 mile east), Stamford Hill (1 mile north) and Upper Clapton (1 mile north-east). We also serve nearby towns such as London (4 miles south), City of Westminster (5 miles south-west), Marylebone (4 miles south-west), Kensington (7 miles south-west), St Pancras (3 miles south-west) and Walthamstow (3 miles north-east).

Well-known places in the area include Clowns Gallery-Museum (1.1 miles south) and German Hospital (0.9 miles south). Within reach you will find Woodberry Wetlands and Hollow Pond.

  • Local schools include Tawhid Boys School (less than half a mile north) and The Petchey Academy (0.5 miles south)
  • Pubs nearby include The Coach And Horses Public House (within half a mile north-west)
  • Local facilities include Stoke Newington (0.7 miles south-west)

Common questions in West Hackney

Can you do a barbecue in Stoke Newington Common?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.

What if our house in West Hackney has no side access?

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

Will guests know what’s in each dish?

We give you allergen information for every dish, and we can label the vegetarian and vegan options.

Do you cook the barbecue on site?

Yes, at your event, on a spot we agree with you. We need a level, open area outdoors with room for the grill and a serving table.

Will you clear up afterwards?

Yes, we clear up after service, so there’s very little washing up. Ask if you’d like china.

How far ahead should we book a barbecue?

Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Midweek dates are usually easier to get. Send us your details through our quote form.

Can it be a sit-down meal?

Yes, on plates with salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

Do you leave the area tidy?

Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.

Planning the cooking spot

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:

  • Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
  • Permission from the venue or landowner
  • Flat ground outdoors for the barbecue

As a London location, West Hackney is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

The process

With cover over the grill, the weather rarely holds us up, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. By late September, sunset in West Hackney is about 7:05pm; in December it is about 3:55pm. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.

  1. Start with the occasion, the date and the venue.
  2. We suggest a menu and send a quote.
  3. We arrive ahead of service and set up under cover.
  4. We serve as people come up.
  5. We tidy up before we go.

How to prepare

  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Keep the grill downwind of the seating
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

Ask for a quote

A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.
