Booked for Corporate Function

Arrived in plenty of time to set up for our event with lovely friendly staff. Struggled to get a quick response from them for payment. Didn't respond to emails and left messages were never returned and had to keep calling back.

Danielle Neal1 Jun 2024

Booked for Wedding

Thank you for our incredible burgers, myself and our guests really enjoyed the selection of both meat and vegetarian meals- especially the halloumi! The service was really easy on the day and the staff were so lovely and professional.

We hired E8 Fish n Chips for a launch party of about 40 people. They were incredibly accommodating, on time and the food was delicious. Some of our guests went back for seconds! Lovely people and would use them again

The food and service was excellent and all my guests (various ages and nationalities), absolutely loved it. Maha was lovely and very respectful. Couldn't recommend Tripoli Express more highly. Thank you very much!

Arlyn Miles30 Jun 2023

Booked for Corporate Function

Very friendly and flexible, excellent service delivered. We did somewhat expect the spectacle of a whole hog roasted like in the photos which wasn't the case, but the food was delicious none the less and everyone had a great time! Thank you

Jenny Tayler28 Apr 2022

Booked for Wedding

Excellent service, all our guests were impressed by the choice and serving size. Ian and Winnie were brilliant, very helpful and let us know when the food was ready and checked everyone had eaten. No one had to queue for long, and everyone was happy! Thank you so much, it made feeding everyone at our wedding really easy!

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.
