Tapas catering in Strawberry Hill, made fresh on the day
Tapas are sharing food, made for conversation. We serve them in two ways: canapés carried round while guests mingle, or table tapas set down to share. Popular choices include padrón peppers, croquetas and Manchego with membrillo, and typical bookings are for launches and office parties and tapas with a paella main course.
In Strawberry Hill, tapas suit drinks receptions, evening parties and work events, in a home, a venue or an office. Tell us about access and parking. You’ll know exactly what’s included before you book: menu, staff, crockery and anything else you choose.

A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.

Rain doesn’t stop us, as long as there is a ventilated cover. We will make a plan B with you.
