Booked for Celebration

Marco was fantastic and the food was 5 star. The salmon was the best we’ve ever eaten! Delicious paella starter and amazing key lime pie that the whole family enjoyed. Marco also left us with a clean kitchen - highly recommended!

Emma Russell18 Aug 2021

Booked for Private party

Lee’s communication with me was excellent throughout. He tweaked the menu for us and even provided us with a child’s meal, which was the child’s favourite! Lee turned up when he said he would, was very friendly and professional and the food was excellent! Would highly recommend!

Lin Farmer27 Jun 2019

Booked for Hen party

Brilliant evening with Adam Brodrick who we booked through La Belle Assiette. We had several options of chefs offered to us by Poptop. Once we’d chosen our chef there were plenty of opportunity to discuss menu beforehand. We booked several months in advance and payment in full was required at time of booking. Chef arrived, completed the pre-prepped food he brought, served and cleared all very efficiently for a hen party of 12. The food was excellent in taste and presentation. Would recommend chef dining, the chef we had and Poptop.

"Sean from Demaine Artisan came to our home to cook for my husband’s birthday yesterday evening. All I can say is “what an amazing dinner!” Sean was professional, friendly, and a great chef! He left the kitchen spotless. You wouldn’t have known he’d been there! We will definitely be booking Seam again. Thank you so much!"

Booked for Hen party

The team at First Choice were great - the food was beautifully presented and tasted good (the desserts in particular were delicious!), and the chef was really friendly and a good laugh. Would definitely recommend!

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.
