At Nyama, everything revolves around bringing people together around great food. From relaxed BBQs and spectacular live-fire feasts to wood-fired pizzas, mobile bars, desserts and unique outdoor catering experiences, we create memorable gatherings for every occasion.
The perfect way to kick off any celebration, our canapés are often the first taste of the live-fire experience to come. Many are prepared and finished over the flames in full view of your guests, filling the air with smoky aromas and creating a little theatre before the main feast even begins.
Expect a vibrant selection of bite-sized favourites, including grilled halloumi and watermelon bites, jalapeño poppers, curried venison skewers, Korean BBQ chicken drummettes and salmon flammlach crostini, to name just a few.
Served by our friendly team as guests arrive, they're a relaxed and sociable way to get guests mingling while setting the tone for the celebration ahead.
Sometimes the simplest things are the hardest to beat. Our BBQ classics are built around quality ingredients, cooked properly over fire and served with all the traditional accompaniments you'd expect from a great barbecue.
As our most affordable BBQ offering, it's a fantastic choice for clients looking for great value without compromising on quality or flavour. Think hand-pressed Exmoor beef burgers, West Country pork and apple sausages, free-range chicken and generous homemade sides, all freshly prepared and cooked over the flames.
Relaxed, crowd-pleasing and packed with nostalgia, these menus are perfect for everything from garden parties and weddings to corporate events and summer celebrations.
If you're looking to create a real centrepiece for your event, our big roasts and mixed grills deliver theatre, abundance and plenty of wow factor. From whole hogs and spit-roasted English lamb to venison turning slowly over the flames, these menus are all about celebrating the art of cooking over fire.
For those wanting a little variety, our popular mixed grill combines some of our favourite wood-fired dishes, including rolled pork belly, Peruvian-style free-range chicken and char-grilled beef rump cap served with Argentine chimichurri.
Generous, impressive and made for sharing, these feasts are perfect for weddings, corporate events and larger celebrations where great food takes centre stage.
Some of our most popular menus draw inspiration from great barbecue traditions around the world, bringing authentic flavours, live-fire cooking, and a sense of adventure to your event.
Travel to South Africa for curried venison sosaties, boerewors sausages and braaibroodjies fresh from the grill. Experience the theatre of a Brazilian churrasco, where picanha, linguiça and free-range chicken are cooked over open flames and carved straight from the skewers. Journey across to Argentina for whole lamb, cross-cut beef ribs, empanadas and homemade chimichurri, or discover the bold spices of our South Asian halal BBQ with chicken tikka, seekh kebabs and tandoori-inspired flavours.
Closer to home, our Great British BBQ celebrates quality local ingredients with burgers, lamb chops, sausages and free-range chicken, while our American Bar-B-Que brings together sticky wings, smoked brisket, pulled pork and slow-cooked ribs with all the classic Southern accompaniments.
Whichever destination you choose, every feast is built around great food, real fire and bringing people together around the table.
Looking for something a little more relaxed and interactive? Our street food stalls bring the atmosphere of a bustling food market to your event, allowing guests to wander, explore and enjoy freshly prepared dishes straight from the stall.
Unlike our larger BBQ feasts, street food stalls focus on smaller portions and informal dining, with guests typically choosing from a selection of themed stalls. The result is a vibrant, social atmosphere where people can mingle, sample different flavours and discover something new.
Travel from Mexico with smoky beef barbacoa tacos and juicy pork carnitas, to South Africa for a warming Durban Bunny Chow. Discover Greek souvlaki fresh from the grill, Finnish flammlachs cooked over open flames, Cuban-inspired pork shoulder, Spanish giant pan paella, Jamaican jerk favourites and Portuguese churrasco, to name just a few.
Perfect for weddings, corporate events, summer parties and festivals, our street food stalls combine great food, plenty of variety and a memorable live-fire experience.
Looking for something a little different? Our BBQ bowl food combines bold global flavours with the relaxed atmosphere of live-fire cooking, creating a colourful and modern alternative to traditional event catering.
Guests can choose from a range of meat, seafood and plant-based bowls, featuring everything from Argentine steak chimichurri and Peruvian grilled chicken to Korean BBQ prawns, Finnish salmon flammlach, Middle Eastern falafel and Moroccan-inspired vegetables.
Designed for events where guests are standing, mingling and socialising, BBQ bowl food is a fantastic solution when formal seating is limited or simply not required. Easy to enjoy with a fork while moving around, it offers a relaxed and contemporary style of dining without compromising on flavour, presentation or variety.
Particularly popular for corporate events, networking receptions, drinks parties and private celebrations, it's a flexible option that allows guests to eat comfortably while remaining part of the action.
Some occasions deserve something a little more special. Whether you're celebrating a wedding, milestone birthday, anniversary, family gathering or another important occasion, our grand occasion feasts are designed to bring people together around exceptional food and warm hospitality.
The experience often begins with a selection of live-fire canapés served by our team as guests arrive, from grilled halloumi and watermelon bites and salmon flammlach crostini to curried venison skewers and Korean BBQ chicken drummettes. From there, guests can enjoy spectacular wood-fired mains such as slow spit-roasted pork belly, Peruvian-style free-range chicken, butterflied leg of lamb and char-grilled beef rump cap with chimichurri, accompanied by seasonal salads, artisan breads and fire-roasted sides.
Mains can be served buffet-style or laid down the centre of the table for guests to share, creating a relaxed and sociable dining experience that encourages conversation and celebration.
And when the dancing starts, there's no need for the food to stop. Evening favourites such as Angus beef smashed burgers, ultimate chilli cheese dogs, Argentine choripán, carne asada flatbreads, South African braai broodjies and generous grazing feasts help keep guests fuelled long into the evening.
To complete the occasion, we can also provide desserts, drinks packages, mobile bars and all the finishing touches needed to create a truly memorable celebration.
There's something about a wood-fired pizza oven that naturally draws people in. Guests gather around the fire, watch pizzas being stretched and baked, and enjoy them fresh from the oven as they're ready.
Using traditional Italian techniques and quality ingredients, we create pizzas with beautifully blistered crusts, bubbling mozzarella and bold, vibrant toppings. Favourites include the classic Margherita, Prosciutto with Parma Ham and rocket, spicy Diavalo with Spanish chorizo, smoky Americano topped with beef brisket, and our Mediterranean pizza loaded with feta, olives and artichokes.
Whether served as a main meal, shared amongst friends or as late-night food to keep the party going, our wood-fired pizzas bring flavour, theatre and plenty of atmosphere to any event. Gluten-free options are also available.
Who says BBQ season ends when the temperature drops? Some of our favourite events take place during the colder months, when guests can gather around the fire and enjoy the warmth, atmosphere and theatre of live-fire cooking.
Available from October through to April, our winter offering includes everything from festive feasts and slow-roasted winter menus to hearty Hot Pot Buffets simmering away in cast-iron cauldrons over open flames. Think rich, warming flavours, seasonal ingredients and comforting desserts served alongside all the fire-cooked goodness that Nyama is known for.
Whether it's a Christmas party, winter wedding, corporate celebration or family gathering, we'll help create a cosy and memorable event that embraces everything we love about cooking outdoors in winter.

Whole fish, big flavour and bold BBQ vibes. Our seafood menus celebrate the magic of cooking over fire, combining the freshest seafood with simple ingredients, live-fire theatre and a little bit of drama.
Expect dishes such as whole trout stuffed with tarragon and lemon, cedar-planked salmon glazed with honey and mustard, whole monkfish tail, flame-grilled peri-peri prawns and grilled scallops finished with nduja butter. Cooked over flames and served with vibrant accompaniments, these menus offer a lighter yet equally impressive alternative to traditional BBQ feasting.

Not everyone loves meat – and that's absolutely fine by us. We believe non-meat eaters deserve something just as exciting as everyone else, which is why our vegan dishes are designed specifically for live-fire cooking and packed with bold flavour.
Depending on your chosen menu, a selection of vegan dishes can be included at no extra cost. Favourites include smashed mushroom burgers, grilled veggie skewers with chimichurri, harissa-spiced cauliflower steaks, Malay-grilled aubergine, sweet potato tandoori tikka masala curry and charred hispi cabbage with miso dressing.
Far from being an afterthought, these dishes have become some of the most talked-about items on our menus and are enjoyed by vegans, vegetarians and meat-eaters alike.

No great feast is complete without something sweet. Whether it's guests gathering around our interactive S'mores Bar to toast marshmallows over the flames, cooling down with our Ice Cream Bar featuring award-winning Marshfield Farm ice cream, or sharing a table laden with indulgent desserts, we've got plenty of ways to finish your event on a high.
Favourites include our Dessert Sharing Platters, designed for guests to help themselves and discover a variety of sweet treats, alongside classics such as Lemon Curd Eton Mess, Double Fudge Chocolate Brownies and seasonal desserts that can be tailored to your event.
For those who prefer something savoury after dinner, our Best of Europe Cheese Platter showcases a carefully selected collection of continental cheeses served with grapes, figs, crackers, chilli jam, honey and chutney, beautifully presented on rustic wooden boards.
And for the perfect finale, we can also provide freshly brewed Fairtrade coffee and premium teas, allowing guests to relax, unwind and savour the final moments of the celebration.
