We had a brilliant evening and Ed the chef was amazing. The food was incredible and he was great at presenting it all making it feel very special. He also tidied everything up perfectly which meant we could just enjoy the celebration. Such a treat! Thank you Ed, would definitely recommend. Anna

The first Chef we booked let us down only a couple of months before the event which was really disappointing. However, lucky for us we managed to get Marcus. He was so organised, flexible and friendly from start to finish. He really couldn’t do enough and worked his socks off. Everyone was really impressed with Marcus and the food he provided. I would definitely recommend!

After three separate providers pulled out of my birthday weekend (one through Poptop, two privately) I rang Laurel at Poptop and begged her to help me, with only two weeks to go until my doomed dinner party which was looking like it was going to be Chef-less. Laurel immediately sprung in to action and found me Ed, who had only recently signed up to Poptop. After we had agreed the menu and confirmed the booking, Ed was in touch regularly (to reassure me he was still there!) but also to confirm the finer details of the evening. When one of my party pulled out at the last minute, Ed was totally flexible to change the courses to accommodate in other ways so I didn't lose money. On the night, Ed turned up promptly, brought me birthday sparkles and cooked us a delightful four course dinner (and an additional palette cleanser!). He also flexed on timings to allow for a live singer we had booked. He dressed in full chef's attire, did all of the cleaning up after the event and not only this, but he also got involved with our games and conversations and was fabulous company! Honestly, could not be more happy with Ed, the service he provided, but also how much of an all-round gentleman and nice guy he is. Couldn't recommend him more. THANK YOU ED! Legend.

Responsive communication when answering and catering to all questions before booking. Food was served perfectly on time and the chef handled our old aga very well. All guests were thoroughly impressed with the food all evening- we would recommend it to others and will no doubt be booking again!

The chefs were excellent, really nice food. Very considerate of the children we had with us. Cleaned up everything and made my mums birthday party really easy.

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.
