Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The number of people
- Waiting and bar staff
- How many courses
- Whether you need crockery
Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- What the venue already provides
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field
Send us the date, your venue or CT9 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get a menu idea and a price. To get started, use our quote form.
