BBQ Club
BBQ Club, Jimmy's Pop Up
The Queen's Walk, Lambeth
London, May 2023
“It’s always a risk launching your Summer Pop-Up in May and when I arrived at Jimmy Garcia’s latest on the Southbank, it seemed like that risk may not have paid off. The weather could only possibly be described as apocalyptic, only one thing was for certain, we weren’t going to be playing any lawn games anytime soon. If you’ve never heard of Jimmy and his Southbank venue you may wonder why I’m even mentioning lawn games. Every year the team here go above and beyond to transform their space into the most unusual, interactive and, yes, instagrammable pop-up around. There’s been fondue, igloos and now it’s the turn of ‘Life’s a Picnic’. Launching last weekend the team here promise the chance to soak up the rays in their own riverside patch at Southbank Centre, playing classic British outdoor games such as croquet and Swingball, whilst indulging in a special BBQ Club hamper, packed with alfresco goodies. As always with the Jimmy team, there’s also the sit-down dining area which marks the return of the more familiar BBQ Club – an interactive seven-course tasting menu with big green egg BBQs installed along a long row of benches.” (The BBQ Club at Jimmy's Pop Up, About Time)
