Catering for 80 Guests in London
Eighty guests is a wonderful size to cater, big enough to feel like a proper celebration, intimate enough that every dietary need can be honoured by name. We cater this size every week across weddings, milestone birthdays and corporate events.
At eighty guests you can pick any format. A roaming canapé reception with fizz, a hot and cold buffet across cuisines, a live BBQ in summer, or a plated three course dinner with full service. Add a mobile bar for cocktails and prosecco, and we scale the kitchen and team to match your choice.
We bring a mobile kitchen to your venue, set up and clear down, and plan carefully around allergies for seated meals. Family-run with over 30 years of experience, more than 1,000 events and a 5.0 star rating. Submit the Get a Quote form for a reply within 24 hours.
