Booking process was easy and clear. A couple of days before the event, comms were sent to make sure we were prepped eg leave 2 shelves in the fridge for the chef, chef arrival time, tipping etiquette etc. customer service was quick to respond to any questions. On the day, chef called beforehand to check if we had any questions, they arrived on time with all the ingredients and left leaving the kitchen spotless. During the night the service was top, they used the tools in the kitchen freely so not to disturb us.

Crepe de le crepe was amazing from beginning to end. Serving some of the most amazing crepes i have probably ever had! The wide variety of toppings are all you could ever want. All the guests commented on how amazing they was. The staff was so lovely and helpful couldn’t recommend enough. Thank you for making our day special

The food was absolutely excellent. Ross was friendly and helpful, and left the kitchen spotless afterwards. We had the best evening and wouldn’t hesitate to do this again.

Adrian helped us out in a bind, on a last-minute event for a party of 7. He was courteous and polite the whole way through and accommodated us - again, all on short notice. Most importantly the food was amazing, could not be faulted. The flavours were fantastic and I don't think that truly describes our experience and the pleasure we had eating it. We know we'll be seeing Adrian again in future!

Fantastic meal and service provided throughout. I was quite late in booking the meal, and therefore slightly delayed in finalising the payment and menu choices. The customer service team were very accommodating. On the night our chef, Mark, was very professional and served us up a delicious 5-course meal for 6 people, none of us left a morsel! The kitchen was left spotless, and we had a great evening. Would highly recommend, and will definitely use the service again in the future.

Marcus was fab! easy to book and contact was great, sent a menu which was great. On the day Marcus and his team came and set up, the weather was awful (heavy rain) but he managed to put on a very tasty spread which everyone looked. Even cleared away and served dessert! Highly recommend

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
