Outdoor Kitchens are the latest luxury addition to our outside spaces.

We’ll look at what they are and how to get your Bespoke Outdoor Kitchen Designed and Installed.

In this blog article, we’ll look at the explosion in popularity of Outdoor Kitchens, why they’ve become so popular, what they are and how owning one could increase the enjoyment of your outdoor space. So grab your oven gloves, and let’s cook!

Why have the British fallen for outdoor kitchens?

Outdoor kitchens have become very popular over the last few years, with TV chefs taking every opportunity to showcase their outdoor cooking extravaganza, but when did they become so popular?

Go back three years. We had a glorious summer and …. LOCKDOWN!

It was then that homeowners discovered the joy of having outside space. We all spent a lot more time in the garden, and although we couldn’t mingle with other households, we could mix with our own, and the humble BBQ was elevated to the central meeting place for meals and family entertainment.

But for some, the humble BBQ just wasn’t enough – they wanted more!

They wanted an outside fridge, a sink, an oven and even a dishwasher – all the mod cons they already had in the home kitchen, but in the garden. They did not want to keep taking frequent trips back and forth to the house, taking this in, and bringing that out, missing out on all the fun.

If that sounds like your outdoor cooking experience, let’s look at how a fully bespoke outdoor kitchen could elevate your exterior culinary ambitions.

Bespoke Outdoor Kitchens Designed & Installed

An Outdoor Kitchen designed and fitted by Hot Tubs of London will give you the ultimate socialising space, the ideal mix of fire and food where you can showcase your culinary expertise whilst being the perfect host.

Gone are the days of being the lonely burger flipper in a cloud of smoke at the bottom of the garden, looking on as your guests enjoy themselves on your patio or, worse still, inside the house.

With modern, economical outdoor heating options, outdoor kitchens allow us to enjoy our gardens throughout the year. All our kitchens are entirely bespoke and designed to suit any size, shape, or budget, and you, may find that they cost less than you think!

We take care of the whole process, from planning to installation, and you’ll have a dedicated project manager overseeing the entire build.

Can an outdoor kitchen be as well-equipped as my indoor one?

Yes, anything can be incorporated, from induction hobs, ovens and gas grills to side burners, fridges, and pizza ovens.

Plus, there are things that you can have outdoors that would not usually be in an inside kitchen, such as wood-fired or charcoal burners.

Now we’ve discovered how much we enjoy cooking outdoors and entertaining friends and family at home, combining these highly pleasurable activities in the great outdoors is indeed a life-enhancing experience.

Do I Need to Compromise?

No, far from it.

Because you aren’t constrained by the size or shape of indoor walls, you have the freedom to design whatever you like.

Hot Tubs of London know how Outdoor Kitchens work best, so we can advise you about the practicalities of your dream layout. After all, you don’t want to have your back to your guests while cooking or mixing drinks, do you?

What do you consider to be the magical ingredient?

Undoubtedly, the magic ingredient is taking a completely bespoke approach to every project. Because every outdoor space and every client is different, bespoke is a big focus for us as a business. While it doesn’t add to the cost, it massively adds to the design – and, ultimately, the enjoyment.

Indoor Kitchen, Outdoor Kitchen, What’s the Difference?

Design, construction, and materials.

Whatever we install will have to withstand the great British weather, but with a combination of expert design, construction, and materials, you’ll get a superb, bespoke outdoor kitchen that will be anything you want it to be and last for a very long time.

List the features you’d like to include.

The possibilities are endless: from lighting and heating to blinds, pergolas, and illuminated designs, we can do it all.

But, just as with the inside of a house, creating the wow factor while incorporating the practicalities requires the most thought to create that sociable, multifunctional oasis that works for you and your guests to eat and relax.

Do you need planning permission for an outdoor kitchen in the UK?

Generally speaking, you don’t need planning permission for an outdoor kitchen, as it’s not considered a permanent structure. However, if you live in a listed building or in a conservation area, you must check with your local authority.
