Katherine Kew23 Sep 2026

Booked for Wedding

Overall I had an amazing experience with this caterer.. the communication and professionalism was great and the food was presented beautifully, but most importantly everything tasted delicious! The caterers did not have much space to prepare or to present the food so they really did great being flexible and accommodating to the given venue. The only downside is that I did specify prior that I had a guest who was vegetarian, but as I had not chosen any vegetarian options (just 1 person out of 75 people) I expected that they would be given a separate vegetarian meal, this was not the case and they instead were only able to eat the sides and the salad without a main - That was a shame. The chef did check in with me to ensure that I was happy with the food on the day, and they were so discrete when seamlessly setting up around our wedding schedule. The food was so delicious that we had many, many compliments from our guests. For the price we paid I am beyond happy with the service and wouldn't recommend enough! Thank you so very much, I will be asking my guests to also write reviews.

Booked for Celebration

Fantastic evening Paul communication leading to the evening was great. He was a very pleasant and friendly chef and an amazing cook. Food was delicious and the menu perfectly complimented its self. At the end of the evening he left the kitchen cleaner than he found it. All in all I can’t recommend this experience more highly and we will be booking Paul again. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Booked for Birthday party

I had the pleasure of having Ashley do a private home chef experience last night. It was a surprise bday meal for my partners birthday. I don’t normally write reviews but I can honestly say the whole experience was spot on to the little details that I wouldn’t have even thought of. Highly recommend

Fantastic service, the afternoon tea was described as delicious and one of the best they have had.. I sent it as a treat for a friend and her mother who has dementia and the joy it gave to her made my day.. Thank you so much

Booked for Birthday party

Fantastic service from start to finish. I wanted to do a nice isolation afternoon tea for my Wifes Birthday and Renee certainly came through, ensuring our catering requirements were met! The sandwiches and cakes were absolutely amazing. I will definitely use Renee again when out of lockdown, for the whole family! Thanks, Lee
