Exceptional festive catering and service for Christmas parties, corporate events and seasonal gatherings. Flavour sits at the heart of everything we do, so our festive menus balance confident flavours with familiar favourites, drawing on globally inspired influences, seasonal produce and considered sourcing, backed by decades of hospitality experience.

Great catering is about more than feeding guests. It is food that sparks conversation, thoughtful service and an atmosphere that lets people relax, connect and enjoy themselves. From first enquiry through to final service we work closely with you, so every detail is considered, guests are well catered for and the party runs smoothly, leaving you to enjoy the festivities knowing everything is taken care of.

N°05The practical side

The logistics, handled.

Dates
November and December are the busiest months and December fills first, so tell us a first and second choice. There is no cut-off, and January Christmas parties are welcome too.
Numbers
No minimum. Tell us your headcount and we will suggest the format that suits it, from a small team lunch to a seated dinner for around 150, with standing formats stretching well past that.
Where
Offices, hired venues, marquees and homes. We bring the kitchen and only need power, water and parking.
Dietary
Vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free and nut free as standard. Every Christmas menu carries its dietary tags.
Clear-up
We arrive ahead, set up, serve and leave the place as we found it.
N°06Common questions

As early as you can, as December fills first, but there is no cut-off date. If your date is close, ask anyway, as weekday lunches often still have room, and January Christmas parties work just as well with more choice of dates. Send the date and a rough headcount and we will hold it while the menu is decided.

Yes. We cook on site wherever we can, in the office kitchen or from our own kitchen set-up in a meeting room, courtyard or car park. We need power, water and somewhere to park, and we bring everything else, from ovens to crockery. Standing formats such as canapés and bowls suit most office spaces.

Canapés and canapé bowls. Canapés keep the room moving, and bowls such as roast turkey with pigs in blankets or slow-cooked beef cheek give guests something substantial without a table. Many parties run canapés for the first hour and bowls after, followed by sweet canapés such as the Christmas pudding truffle.

Yes, as standard. Every Christmas menu carries vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options, and each banquet centrepiece has a plant-based alternative alongside it. Tell us about allergies and intolerances when you enquire and we will confirm what each dish contains, so nobody at the party has to ask.

Our own chefs and front of house come with every event. We do not run a bar, but supply the drinks and our team will serve them, from a welcome glass through to softs. We set up before your guests arrive and clear down after they leave.

We are based in Leighton Buzzard and cover a 60-mile radius, which takes in London, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire. Most of our Christmas parties are in London offices and home counties venues, and we travel further for larger events.

No. There is no minimum for a Christmas party, so a small team lunch is as welcome as a two hundred guest reception. Tell us your headcount and the room and we will suggest the format that suits it, whether that is canapés and bowls, a seated banquet or Yorkshire pudding wraps. Numbers can settle later.
