Your questions about a catered barbecue in Wymering
How far is Wymering from London?
About 62 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What’s the nearest station to Wymering?
Cosham station, in Wymering itself.
Do you do barbecues out of season?
Summer is the busiest time, but we cook all year. Plan shelter for your guests.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Is the barbecue cooked on site?
Yes, on site at your venue in Wymering. The barbecue needs a level spot outdoors, clear of buildings and trees.
Can it be a sit-down meal?
Yes. With salads and potatoes, it’s a proper meal on a plate; ask about china if you’d like it.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V) and a vegan burger or sausage (Ve). Tell us numbers so there is enough.
Does rain stop the barbecue?
The barbecue cooks under cover, so a shower does not stop it. Plan somewhere dry for your guests to eat.
BBQ catering for your event in Wymering

The process
With cover over the grill, the weather rarely holds us up, though your guests will want shelter if it rains. In Wymering, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer barbecues are served in daylight.
- We start with your date, venue and numbers.
- Choose your meats and sides.
- We confirm the cooking spot and send a quote.
- On the day, our chef cooks and our staff serve.
- We pack away and leave the area tidy.
Before we arrive
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Arrange lighting for a late barbecue
