Booked for Private party

All ~150 attendees of the event greatly enjoyed all the food provided, so much so that the vast majority had seconds or even thirds! Professional, yet friendly staff, well-prepared food and a quality stall. Well worth the price.

Booked for Birthday party

High tea was well received as a celebration on a 70th birthday. I needed to change the delivery address at short notice and they were very helpful - even phoning me as they were making up the tea to check they definitely had the right address.

Booked for Birthday party

Fantastic service from start to finish. I wanted to do a nice isolation afternoon tea for my Wifes Birthday and Renee certainly came through, ensuring our catering requirements were met! The sandwiches and cakes were absolutely amazing. I will definitely use Renee again when out of lockdown, for the whole family! Thanks, Lee

Booked for Birthday party

Very pleased with our Bbq which was hassle free and received much praise from our guests. Good selection of meats and salads and the service was spot on from Laura and Mandy. Would recommend as it took the stress away of cooking good bbq food for 30 people.

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.
