Booked for Birthday party

We had a superb meal cooked by Antony from Norfolk County Catering. Every course was beautifully presented and delicious. Antony did an excellent job not only cooking but serving and leaving the kitchen spotless. It was very straightforward to book through poptop and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Booked for Bridal shower

Ed was completely lovely and professional. He made the event completely stress-free for me. The food was wonderful. The kitchen was left completely clean. He even agreed to act as our unofficial photographer and took some great shots of the party. Thanks so much Ed, will definitely be booking again!

Booked for Celebration

Marco was fantastic and the food was 5 star. The salmon was the best we’ve ever eaten! Delicious paella starter and amazing key lime pie that the whole family enjoyed. Marco also left us with a clean kitchen - highly recommended!

Booked for Hen party

Paul was really prompt and responsive. Gave us lots of menu options to choose from. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Paul left the kitchen spotless, didn’t trouble us at all whilst he prepped and was kind enough to even take some photos for us too!

Booked for Birthday party

Absolutely fantastic service and food was superb. Can't recommend highly enough and everyone who attended wanted Ben's details! Ben was extremely friendly, punctual and left the kitchen spotless. I'm sure we will be booking again soon!

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.
