Booked for Birthday party

Mario, what a legend! The night couldn’t have been any better and Mario was a big part of that. The cocktails were amazing and he was so friendly and accommodating, I couldn’t recommend more highly. Having Mario and his cocktails made my wife’s party truly memorable, all the guests thought he was great, thanks Mario!!

"We used marmite catering for the first time for our annual Christmas get together and were so impressed with the food and the service. From the word go, Ian went out of his way to accommodate all our needs and was very quick to respond to any query. The menu choices offered were fantastic and really catered for all the guests. Everyone truly enjoyed the food. I would recommend marmite catering do anyone hosting an event and I certainly will be using them 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.
