What type of events is hot buffet catering suitable for?

Hot buffets are ideal for weddings, corporate events, private parties, family celebrations, community gatherings, and seasonal occasions. They offer a warm, satisfying meal with flexible options to suit a variety of guests.

Can I customise the menu?

Do you cater for dietary requirements?

Absolutely. We regularly cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free guests, as well as specific allergy requirements. Just let us know your needs when booking, and we’ll make sure everyone is included.

How is the hot food kept warm and served?

We use professional hot holding equipment to keep food at the correct temperature. Our team can set everything up, and if you’ve booked staff, we’ll also serve guests to ensure everything runs smoothly and safely.

Are references available?

Absolutely – Don’t be afraid to ask! Copies of thank you letters and clients you can contact are readily available.

Can you deliver and set up without staying to serve?

Yes. We offer both staffed and self-serve options. For smaller or informal events, we can deliver and set up the buffet, then return later to collect any equipment.

What are your most popular hot buffet dishes?

Some of our crowd-pleasers include chicken curry, vegetable lasagne, Mediterranean Fig & Mozzarella Salad, rice dishes, and seasonal vegetables. We’ll recommend dishes based on your guest preferences and event type.

Do you provide staff?

We always supply a fully qualified Chef (dressed in full whites) and an assistant to serve.

How much does hot buffet catering cost?

Pricing depends on the number of guests, menu choices, staffing, and extras. We’ll provide a clear, tailored quote based on your requirements — no hidden fees, just great food and service.

What about Health & Safety issues and Public Liability Insurance?

All our staff have the appropriate Food Hygiene Certificates and our company has the necessary product and public liability insurance in place. (Copies are available upon request)

How does payment work?

We require a 50% deposit to confirm the booking.

We will contact you at least 14 days prior to your function to discuss final numbers and precise timings and at this point the final payment then becomes due

How far in advance should I book?

To secure your date and allow for menu planning, we recommend booking at least 4–6 weeks in advance. For peak times (like Christmas or summer weekends), earlier is better!
