Should I cook it myself?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

12 questions to ask before booking

For planners, venues and organisers

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so everyone eats promptly. Let us know how long the food break is.

Questions from Stone Copse

Could we have live paella in Victoria Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.

Can you cook at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.

What happens if it rains?

Rain does not stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We will make a plan B with you.

Can you do gluten-free paella?

Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.

Can you supply plates?

Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.

What areas do you cover?

We cater across London and the South East, West Berkshire included. Find your area.

Can you invoice the company?

We will explain booking and payment when you enquire.

Do you cook at offices in central London?

Often, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We will confirm with facilities.

Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed before booking.
