Javi has been great, he was very accommodating and easy to deal with. On the day the food was lovely and the spectacle of having him at the party was a real talking point. Thanks

Richie was very responsive to emails and really professional throughout. Our party guests lived the outdoor paella and it was indeed very tasty and best thing was that we didn’t have to worry about preparation or clearing up! Food was ready for the agreed time and generally everything was just so easy so we could just enjoy the party!

Two lovely paelllas. The event was great and the food was good. The price did change due to an increase in gas prices. I think had I been told the final price when looking to book I might have looked elsewhere as it was quite expensive.

When you have 120 guests all saying you had the best-catered wedding they've ever been to *how* can you not give 5 stars 🤷🏼‍♂️ With HUGE delicious portions that left no one disappointed, I was beyond impressed beyond all expectation. The staff, oh my gosh - from Jenny who helped us through the seamless booking process to the team of Paella master chefs on the day who greeted each and every person with a big smile and an even bigger plate of paella 😍 10/10 will book again whenever & where ever I am able. I can't thank you all enough for being apart of the perfect day x Good for parties · Professional staff · Delicious food · Creative cuisine · Great value · Experienced chefs

I booked 'Man with a Pan' for my 50th Birthday party. I could not fault them from start to finish and the food itself was absolutely delicious! They set up in the perfect spot in the garden and it all looked very professional. They were very easy going, chatty and friendly. Not only did they serve the canapes but were also happy to serve the drinks and keep everyone nicely topped up. The food itself was ready at exactly the right time and served piping hot from the pans. The choices I gave the guests were paella and boeuf bourguignon. All the guests commented on how delicious the food was and seconds was positively encouraged! They cleared up all the mess and left no trace at all. Many asked for their cards and said they would certainly use them again or recommend to other friends.

We hired Terry to cater dinner for a hen party. He did a fantastic job, delicious food and lovely service! Terry was really responsive in the organising of the event and a pleasure to meet. Highly recommend! Thanks Terry!

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.
