How our BBQ catering works in Wimbledon
With BBQ catering, the barbecue, the food and the cooking are all on us. We cook on site at your event in Wimbledon, outdoors under cover, and our staff serve and clear. For summer parties in the garden and leaving parties, we will put together a menu of pulled pork, beef brisket and BBQ ribs.
Gardens in Wimbledon tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so we look for a spot where smoke drifts away from windows and fences. Warn the neighbours: barbecue smoke travels. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.

Barbecues in Wimbledon: gardens, clubs and local tips
Wimbledon is about 7 miles south of City of Westminster, in Greater London. Wimbledon and the surrounding area are covered 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 7 miles away.
Churches such as St. Mark's Church rarely have room for a barbecue, but a hall or home nearby normally does. For anyone arriving by rail, Wimbledon station serves Wimbledon directly.
Events anywhere in SW19, SW20, SW17 and SW18 start with an outdoor spot for the barbecue and a serving time. Streets in the area include High Street Mews, High Street and Church Road, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the barbecue. Wimbledon is on the A218 and B235, so it’s easy for us to reach with the equipment. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Crooked Billet (1 mile west), Wimbledon Park (1 mile north), Wimbledon Chase (1 mile south), Copse Hill (1 mile south-west) and Merton Park (1 mile south-east). We also serve nearby towns such as London (7 miles north-east), City of Westminster (7 miles north), Marylebone (7 miles north-east), Kensington (5 miles north), St Pancras (8 miles north-east) and Shoreditch (9 miles north-east).

- Nearby, you will find Dog & Fox pub (within half a mile west)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include Coombe (2.3 miles west)
The process
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower won’t stop it, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. A summer barbecue in Wimbledon stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so an evening barbecue can run late in daylight. By late September, sunset is nearer 7:05pm.
- We start with your date, venue and numbers.
- Choose your meats and sides.
- We check the space and quote.
- We cook on site and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack away and leave the area tidy.
Before we arrive
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Tell us roughly how many children are coming
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

How we price a catered barbecue
Each price is built from:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Numbers
- Whether you want china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Any venue rules
- The address or postcode
- An estimate of numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Tell us about children’s numbers
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Mention any guests who avoid beef
The barbecue goes where we agreed, so the event carries on around us.
Sides turn a barbecue into a proper meal.
Space, access and the venue
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- The venue’s agreement for an outside caterer
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors as a back-up
As a London location, Wimbledon 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.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

- If the price includes VAT

Working with your venue
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Wimbledon questions
Can you do a barbecue in Cannizaro Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Wimbledon?
Wimbledon station, in Wimbledon itself.
What does the venue need to provide?
The main thing is an outdoor cooking spot we can reach. Tell us what’s available on site and we will confirm the rest when we quote.
Is clearing up included?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
What meats do you barbecue?
Beef burgers, sausages, chicken skewers, BBQ ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket, plus vegetarian and vegan options. Sides include salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
Is the food cooked safely?
Cooking properly is our job: raw and cooked food are kept apart, with separate tongs and boards.
Can we mix BBQ and hog roast?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Ask and we will quote for the mix.
A barbecue or other catering?
Next to a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, which helps when some guests don’t eat pork. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so for bigger events, why not both?. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.
