12 questions to ask before booking

Should I cook it myself?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

Planning for every diet

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:

  • Confirm live cooking with facilities
  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Tell us how long the food break is
  • Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies

We keep the cooking area tidy and contained.

Canapés for drinks receptions.

Step by step

Serving is fast: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. In Swalcliffe, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:30pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely

  • Roughly how many adults and children
