Booked for Private party

Harry is great - he cooked a meal for 4 for my Dad's birthday. Super food, he talks you through the ingredients - a lot of which he produces himself - beautifully presented, great service, very reliable, and he left the kitchen spotless. We were extremely impressed!

Simon Ball16 Sep 2025

Booked for Other Event

As ‘first timers’ regarding private chef services, we were delighted with the whole process, start to finish. Finding the right chef for our particular tastes, engaging with him to plan precisely the sort of evening for which we were hoping and then enjoying being ‘hosted in our own home’, with excellent quality ingredients, beautifully presented and knowledgeably served. From the creation of the menu to assistance with the wine choices before the event, and then the attention to detail and assurance that all our guests (and ourselves ) were thoroughly well cared for on the evening - we are converts and will definitely be returning in the not too distant future..

Booked for Birthday party

Colin and our waitress Caz arrived on time to prepare and serve the most delicious meal "Taste of the Cotswolds ". We were a party of 9 and it was enjoyed by everyone from 8 - 80yrs. The table was beautifully decorated with fresh flowers and foliage, much appreciated as in keeping with the eco nature of the Cotswold Lakes where we were staying. Colin always replied to my emails beforehand and addressed any issues I raised. The kitchen was left immaculate, with nothing left for us to do,except wash our glasses as we were still celebrating when they left! We wouldn't hesitate to book them again

Booked for Christmas party

Amazing experience, top quality food, time between courses was just right and to top it off the kitchen was left spotless and dishwashers loaded. Would recommend for a corporate or home dinner party, it takes all the stress away and leaves you to enjoy the evening.

Booked for Birthday party

The food was excellent, and beautifully presented -- we honestly don't know how they managed to keep things in order while transporting it. There was more than enough food for the two of us, and we managed to replicate a nice meal out, but at home. I highly recommend Misi, who was very proactive with communication on top of producing superb food.

Rebecca Galloway25 Nov 2019

Booked for Birthday party

Ian was highly professional to deal with, from the very start of the quotation process through to the evening itself. The menu options were varied and Ian was very happy to make any necessary adaptations to the menu to cater for any dietary requirements. The food on the evening was delicious and beautifully presented. The added bonus at not having to worry about cleaning up afterwards was a treat! I would highly recommend Marmite dining for any occasion.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
