Booked for Birthday party

To be fair the food was delicious and its rustic presentation and theme of big pans suited our party. Also Steve turned up right on time and the food was ready for when we planned. He had also prepared a separate paella for our vegetarian. However, the communication beforehand was limited. We’d no idea what he needed in the way of power or space (his equipment blew our power several times as he was overloading the circuits), what he was bringing and what we needed to provide. His appearance gave a first impression of doubt in the quality, including no teeth! He parked and left his van & trailer right in front of the house with no liaison with where would be better. Thankfully the food was good and everyone felt well fed.

Thanks Steve for catering my dad's wake. Steve was responsive and very easy to deal with in advance of my booking. Steve arrived and set up before we arrived on site, and after battling strong winds during set up and cooking, he made sure our paella was ready for our guests exactly on time. Paella was delicious. Steve helped us tupperware up our leftovers to save for another day, before clearing up. Poptop made the process of finding a local caterer, getting a quote and making our booking very easy. Would use again.

Steve was great - very accommodating, unobtrusive, patient and everyone loved the food! Compared with others his paellas were very good value indeed. I highly recommend Steve and Scoff & Nosh.

Booked for Private party

"staff arrived with all equipment and set up was quickly achieved. Food excellent! Portions plentiful and very tasty. Both the meat paella and fish paella received lots of complements from our members. Whilst the paella was cooking guests enjoyed the lovely aroma. Clearing up was quickly completed. Both Charli and Domingo were friendly but professional and very accommodating especially when the pans needed moving to berth some boats! Thank you Flying Pig Catering. We hope to use you again."

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.
