- Numbers
- The date and time of year
- Access to the cooking area
- Travel to Norwood New Town
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

- Where the event is
- Your date and serving time
- An estimate of numbers
- Allergies we should know about
Not sure how many to cater for? Give us your best estimate and we will quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.
