About our event catering in Seven Dials
Not every venue in Seven Dials has a kitchen, and with us it does not need one: all the cooking happens outdoors under cover. So gardens, yards, fields and marquees all work. Whether it’s weddings and evening receptions and care home days, we will put together a menu of halloumi skewers, beef brisket and pulled pork for your guests.
In a London neighbourhood like Seven Dials, access is the first thing caterers ask about. We cook outdoors, so we need a garden, yard, courtyard or car park with a way in for our equipment. A picture helps. Our staff serve and clear, so you can enjoy the event.
