Booked for Hen party

Mario and his team were amazing from the point of contact to the event itself. He was so professional but friendly, the food was outstanding and he worked tirelessly during our event. I cannot recommend him enough, thank you so much Mario!

Booked for Private party

Hi, Mike from Gingernut catering was extremely efficient and his food was incredible. He was very reliable, friendly and got on with the job in hand. We had a very small kitchen and he was fantastic and professional. I would highly recommend.

Booked for Other Event

Chef Fabio was wonderful. We were happy that he engaged with us but allowed us to have our party. The food was served on time and it was delicious. It looked so good too. I must admit I’ll be doing this again sometime soon.

Booked for Birthday party

Matei catered for my husbands 30th Birthday, the food was fabulous and we had an amazing evening. Matei traveled to the place we were staying, cooked us a 5 course menu (explaining each one) and even cleaned up after himself. I would recommend him to everyone, we will be booking him again.

Booked for Birthday party

The meal - a dinner party for 13 - was all really tasty with generous portions and was really good value for money. Thank you to Five - Atanas and Karenna(?) - the food, service and clearing up afterwards was all excellent making my brother’s 60th birthday meal a relaxed and perfect family occasion. Thank you!

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.
