Kate Petchey9 Aug 2026

Booked for Birthday party

These guys were absolutely brilliant. Every one of our guests commented how amazing the food was, quoting more than one saying ‘they were the best fish & chips they had ever had’. But also, the communication with them was great, always so quick to reply and catered well for allergies, including a guest who was allergic to fish. They were so friendly and I would really recommend using them.

Hannah Fields-davis8 Aug 2024

Booked for Corporate Function

Everything was easy to arrange and set up, with fantastic communication throughout. The staff who were serving were very friendly and accommodating. However, we found the food to be somewhat average. We were hoping for traditional battered cod, but it seemed like the fish may have been pre-packaged, which affected the quality. Unfortunately, a few people mentioned feeling unwell after eating the fish. Overall, it was a good experience, but the quality of the food could be improved to ensure we return in the future.

Booked for Christmas party

E8 were amazing! Reliable, on time and food was delicious! It was our staff Christmas party with 65 people to feed! Food was piping hot and presentation was great! Michael and his colleague were fun, friendly with big smiles! Would throughly recommend them!

Andrea Drewitt12 Dec 2022

Booked for Celebration

I found it difficult to calculate exactly how many meals I would need so it would be better if there was a variation. For example I thought 40 people would eat but it was nearer 30 so I overpaid. There should be some flexibility is pay for 30 but if more people eat make up the cost. The food and service was excellent
