Booked for Birthday party

Very easy to book, Kaz was very professional, he was quick to reply to any questions, was on time for the party, quick set up, and most importantly made the most amazing crepes, there were some very happy party guests!. Great that it was unlimited crepes, which most don't offer this service, so really good value for money. Would recommend and use again. Very pleased I chose this company.

Booked for Birthday party

Steve and his wife were super friendly, very efficient, and beer x to flexible to all that we threw at them. It was a surprise party for my wife's 60th birthday and she had been sent off for a facial so that the garden could be transformed in her absence. She arrived back an hour later than expected and Steve had to complete adjust his time to 'cater' for the delay. I really appreciated his flexibility and calm attitude. The food was spectacular, according to ask of the 28 guests. 🙂. I hope the opportunity comes along to use them again in future. Thanks guys, just brilliant.

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.
