Booked for Birthday party

I was so pleased I used E8 Fish to cater for my Wife’s 50th Birthday, they were great from start to finish, very responsive and accommodating to sort out the menu to cater for all of my guests. On the day, the guys turned up early, set up and served some great food, everyone who eat said it was brilliant and I agree and would definitely use them again and I highly recommend anyone thinking of doing something different for a party then E8 Fish would be my choice.

Booked for Anniversary

Everybody loved the food the downside they were late to a techincal issue apparently they did text me and I did call them they were approximately forty minutes late which by then I had another food van for deserts fortunately they were in no rush. Other than that they the food was nice.

Booked for Hen party

We used Chefpat for our hen party. The weather wasn’t on our side so we have to bring the food inside. Chefpat was very adaptable on the day and still pulled off a great feast for all the hungry hens. Everyone loved the food.

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.
