Should I cook it myself?
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

These are the factors that matter most:
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Travel, parking and access
- How many staff you need
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Everything is confirmed in writing.

- The date and time of the event
- A photo of the space, if you can
