Fiona and Garth Entwistle18 Aug 2023

Booked for Anniversary

Our family enjoyed gathering around the table in our holiday home and being served a memorable meal by Francesca and her husband. She adapted for our dairy free person and explained each course as they arrived. She was warm and friendly, making it a very happy occasion. The kitchen was left immaculate! We certainly appreciated this experience!

Booked for Birthday party

Can’t thank Chef Eugen enough for his professional service and helpful assistant. He arrived on time which was a good distance from home and was fully prepared for his arrival. All of my friends enjoyed the taste, quality, and presentation of his food and the portions were great. Thanks for making my birthday special.

Booked for Birthday party

Without hesitation, one of the best buffets I have ever had. Amazing flavours, a real twist on the traditional finger buffet. Our guests LOVED the sausage rolls, in fact we had many compliments from guests over the quality of food. I cannot recommend highly enough. I look forward to using Simons Catering again in the future. I just need to find another resson to celebrate!

Wonderfully efficient and friendly service. They managed very well in spite of having a cramped kitchen to work in, their food was delicious and excellently prepared and their service throughout was excellent. I would certainly recommend them.

Fantastic! Pad Cha & Chilli catered for my birthday party and were amazing! Food delicious, lots of guests commented on what a great idea it was to have a pop up street caterer. Set up easily and cleared away efficiently. Would definitely use again. Thank you Jan! You were a star!

Booked for Birthday party

We used La Maison for a dinner for 12 people in a house we hired for the weekend. From the beginning, Betty & Levi were so helpful and professional. Nothing was too much hassle and there were so many lovely options for the food. A couple of members of our party had dietary requirements and these were not a problem at all. On the evening, everything ran so smoothly and the food was absolutely delicious. Everybody was so impressed with the service and food! I would recommend La Maison to everybody looking for a lovely meal and service at a great value.

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.
