BBQ catering in West Silvertown, served hot
There’s something about a barbecue that gets people talking: the smell, the queue and the plates piled high. In West Silvertown, we’ll set up where it suits your event. Whether it is charity fundraisers and summer staff days, we’ll put together a menu of sausages, beef brisket and pulled pork for your guests.
In a London neighbourhood like West Silvertown, the big question for a barbecue is where the grill can go. If there is no side passage, a rear gate or yard may work, and send us a photo. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish.

Why a catered barbecue beats doing it yourself
Compared with a barbecue cooked by friends, nobody is left cooking while the party happens, and the food is cooked by people who do it every week. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why book with us
- Planned to your running order
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Vegetarian and vegan options as standard
- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more

West Silvertown: your questions answered
Can you do a barbecue in Thames Barrier Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What’s the nearest station to West Silvertown?
Custom House station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.
Can we have a barbecue and a hog roast?
Yes. Many bigger events have both. Tell us your numbers and we will suggest a split.
Do we have to eat from rolls?
Yes. Plates come as standard, with sides such as salads and potatoes, and china is available on request.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
We bring cover for the grill, but guests will want shelter too.
How soon do barbecue dates go?
Summer Saturdays go first, so ask as early as you can. Midweek dates are generally easier to get. Fill in our quote form.
Will children like the BBQ?
Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, and a vegan sausage covers anyone who doesn’t eat meat. Let us know numbers for children.
How much choice do we need?
Most events choose three or four meats, plus the meat-free options. A shorter menu also speeds up service.

How we price a catered barbecue
Each price is built from:
- How many people are eating
- Travel to West Silvertown
- Site access
- Plates or china
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Details that help
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- The venue or postcode
- Dietary requirements
- 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.
Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Give us numbers for the meat-free options
- Ask which items contain gluten
- Check the allergen information for sauces and marinades
We get there well before service, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
For a bigger event, add a hog roast alongside the barbecue.

About the food
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Crunchy coleslaw suits barbecue food, and salads add freshness.
Pulled pork
Pulled pork is slow-cooked until it falls apart, and served in a soft roll, frequently with coleslaw.
The process
Our chef runs the grill while our staff serve, so the queue keeps moving. When everyone has eaten, we clear the serving area. For an evening barbecue in West Silvertown, 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.
- First, you send us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and get the grill hot.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Choose the menu a week or so before
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
How to get a price

What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Space for the barbecue and a serving table
- A spot where smoke will not blow into the house or marquee
- Space for our vehicle nearby
As a London location, West Silvertown 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 photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
