Best BBQ Spots in London

A notable name on the London BBQ scene, and primed for a party at that, Blues Kitchen Brixton is one of the sexiest and coolest spots to grab BBQ bites in the city. Head on down for hearty Americana grub alongside a roster of live bands and top cocktails. 

The mouth-watering fare at Blues comes to the plate only after its been carefully smoked in-house over fruit boards in their very own BBQ pit. They really know their way around the kitchen here, with melt-in-the-mouth ribs, hand-pulled pork and tender slow-cooked chicken competing for space on a menu that really is sumptuous. Wash it all down with a healthy dose of live blues music (as standard of course).

Get a touch for the deep south just moments from London Bridge. Porky's is all about that Memphis goodness, bringing beautiful BBQ treats like burgers, ribs, pulled pork and more – al cooked via specially imported smokers. They also boast and impressive array of whiskeys, craft beers and cocktails.

Sun soaked beer garden, check. Outdoor bar, check. BBQ area, check. The Jam Tree in Chelsea ticks most boxes for a venue that provides you with your summer must haves! You can enjoy the quality drinks and delicious colonial-inspired food menu in the beautiful fairy light covered garden, that comes equipped with heaters and plenty of seating to house you and your friends throughout the day and night.

With a signature in-house BBQ grill, this gorgeous Battersea restaurant offers a stunning selection of steaks from pork chops and Sussex beef fillet to ox liver and quail.

Big Easy Canary Wharf is where you should get your BBQ fix. The American joint boasts authentic BBQ food and fresh seafood perfect for any BBQ-enthusiasts, and after you've finished your dinner, you can head into the Rum Lounge to listen to live music and enjoy even more cocktails.

When the sun is out it is the perfect spot for alfresco drinking and they even cook up a delicious BBQ lunch for you with more cosmopolitan hankerings. 

Head to The Devonshire come the summertime and you'll find these guys firing up the BBQ in their beautiful garden out back. Pick out a sunny day and head over for a solid session of basking, with everything from grilled pork short ribs to organic buffalo burgers and grilled haloumi on the cards. Thirsty?
