First time using Poptop and would defintely recommend if you want to take the pain out of organising food for large events. The grazing table was wonderful and looked really appealing. Fuss free set up by the caterer, which is much appreciated! Would definitely do it again!

Booked for Hen party

The chefs were absolutely brilliant. The two lovely ladies arrived at 6pm and set up in the kitchen whilst we were having drinks and celebrating our hen. They set the table and made sure everything was perfect before we came through. The food was incredible and everyone said how lovely it was to not worry about cooking on the main night. Thanks, we loved the experience and will be keeping your details for the future.

Thank you so much for delivering a delightful afternoon tea for 2 for my mums birthday. My parents absolutely loved it and enjoyed every part of it. They have told me it was all presented and packaged beautifully. Thanks again and would certainly recommend your afternoon tea.
