Making your Abridge event easy
Abridge has plenty of larger family homes, with room for a bigger guest list at home. Larger homes mean bigger guest lists at home, so we often run two stations: one for mains and one for satay and starters.
The nearest station, Chingford, is about 5 miles away, so most guests arrive by car. Rural venues need a caterer who brings everything, and we arrive with our own gas, water containers and lighting.
About two thirds homes in Abridge (65%) are detached or semi-detached, so most hosts have a garden or driveway to work with. A garden of almost any size takes our cooking station, so you can keep the party at home rather than hiring a hall.

What our clients say
Every one of our 66 Google reviews is five stars. A few of them, in our clients' own words:
“They tailored their menu to us completely, adding a curry dish that is meaningful to us, and making sure the starters were vegan so all our guests could enjoy them… Most of our guests commented on how much they loved the food.”
“I booked Mihai and Nok for my mum's 60th birthday… they adapted their starters into canapés style plates for our casual dining event. Everyone was raving about the food and we didn't have any guests going hungry!”
“All of our guests loved the Thai buffet and we had lots of comments on the high quality. Mihai and his team were discreet and cracked on using the facilities the hall had… brilliant with some of the more complex dietary requirements.”
