Booked for Birthday party

Romuald was brilliant, arrived with everything organised, food was fantastic and he catered for several different dietary requirements. He made it very easy to get everything sorted before the birthday meal, would definitely use his services again.

Booked for Hen party

Paul was absolutely brilliant! Food was delicious and beautifully presented! It was the highlight of our weekend hen do! Fab communication from Paul throughout booking and on the run up to our meal and was very accommodating when I had to request a change to one of the courses for myself due to dietary restrictions. He even found the time to take some group photos for us despite catering to 8 of us in a fairly small and ill equipped kitchen! Would highly recommend and definitely would book again for future events!

Booked for Private party

I would strongly recommend Mario. He made the selection process easy and was very flexible. He arrived on time and delivered an excellent 5 course dinner for 10 people. All guests enjoyed the experience. He was very personably and left the kitchen spotless when he departed. We will utilise his services again in the future.

Booked for Anniversary

Absolutely faultless. Richie is a fantastic chef and on top of that an all round good guy. The food he prepared was delicious and his overall relaxed persona made the night for us. Thanks Richie

Booked for Birthday party

"Ian took a complicated brief from me to produce a nine course meal for 20 people in a venue with limited facilities. Before the event his communication was first rate. He came up with outstanding menu and on the night delivered a spectacular meal. Every one of my guests commented on how fantastic the food and service was. Ian put together an excellent team, liaised with the venue, organised all of the logistics and was even able to recommend and supply some fantastic wines to accompany the meal. The meal was an absolutely integral part of my celebration and in large part because of Ian's efforts my evening went off brilliantly! I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Ian to anyone wanting a special meal. Thank you so much mate!"
