Booked for Corporate Function

This is the 4th time we have used Wafflestick for our corporate event. Malaika and Co. are the nicest people you can meet. Communication is easy, they turned up on time and food was ready to go as agreed. The Wafflesticks are incredible and a huge success with everyone. Without doubt I would book them once again.

Booked for Birthday party for kids

We had Tom over from Doughlicious for our daughters 1st birthday party. We can’t fault his service and the quality of food one bit. He managed to get the pizzas out on time for all the hungry kids and parents. On top of this he even managed to keep the kids entertained with his pizza making skills. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing. Will definitely be having him back again.

Booked for Private party

Lovely family cook amazing quality food. Attention to detail was excellent. Although my guests had to wait a while the food was a delight.

Booked for Birthday party

"My evening was an amazing success and this was only enhanced by the amazing food Marmite Fine Dining provided us. Ian - the Chef was so amazing and helped me put together a menu that worked for all my guests and the service was just brilliant. They arrived on time and got set up very quickly and once my friends arrived, they were happy to talk to them and explain the food choices we had picked. Once the meal was under way, Ian and Miles just quietly got on with the job at hand and left us to it. And once everyone had eaten and all the washing up was done (which I thought was a great service) they chatted with my guests for a bit before leaving up to enjoy the rest of our evening. I highly recommend Marmite Fine Dining, they were truly amazing and I will certainly be using them again!!! Thank you Ian and Miles for making my birthday the amazing event that I had hoped it would be."

About supplier

Our Retro Rocket It was built as a food truck but before I bought it it was a sausage van. We had to change all sorts of equipment. I've always wanted to do crepes for some reason, who doesn't love a crepe?
