Booked for Celebration

Liza delivered a delicious SE Asian meal for 2 veggies and 2 carnivores. We were all sated and smiling at the end. The service was friendly and professional, and the kitchen was immaculate when finished. I had been nervous to book, but highly recommend. It made a planned special occasion spring to life. Thank you Liza.

Booked for Birthday party

Liam catered for my partners 70th birthday party with the bowl and fork dinner as I wanted a relaxed meal. All communication was really easy with Liam and nothing was any trouble. He and Sarah quietly prepared and served the food and more as they took out the starters and dished up the desserts. They we’re invaluable and would definitely use again and recommend them. Thank you Liam and Sarah 😃 x

Booked for Birthday party

I bought this as a gift for my mother-in-law's birthday and it was fabulous. Prompt delivery and she said the food was fantastic. I was so happy with it, I ordered a second one for my parents who also thought it was wonderful. The poptop site was very easy to use and it was easy to contact Matei and poptop. I would highly recommend both the site and Matei's afternoon tea.

Booked for Private party

Karl and his team were fantastic, they managed to cater for all 38 of us in our private work Christmas party, no sweat! Unfortunately we may have been slightly tipsy and forgot to take pictures of the dishes but they were beautiful, well presented and tasty. Also a big thank you for being able to alter the menu to fit everyone's restrictions, I know its not an easy task but it was a big help - see you again next year! ;)

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.
