What to know about Thai party catering in Braintree
Braintree is a large place with about 19,610 households. A town this size has every kind of venue, from function rooms and sports clubs to offices and community centres, and we have the capacity for big guest lists.
Braintree station is under a mile from the centre of Braintree. Guests can arrive by train, which keeps parking simple and lets everyone enjoy a drink.
Braintree has grown a lot in recent years, with 26% of its homes built since 2000. New-build gardens are often compact, so a buffet indoors with food cooked on our station outside works best.
Hosting a party in Braintree
Parties in and around Braintree usually happen at business parks, barn venues and castle and country house venues, and we adapt the set-up to the space.
We need a flat space about the size of a parking bay for the cooking station, or we cook nearby and bring the food in hot.
The drive from our kitchen is about 14 miles via the A120, A12 and A131, roughly 35 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: Witham and Kelvedon are on the main line, with a branch line to Braintree.

Yes. Pad thai, chicken satay, spring rolls and mango sticky rice go down well with children, and we keep mild versions with chilli on the side.
How much does party catering in Braintree cost?
Party catering starts from £14 per guest. Travel to Braintree is included in your quote, which shows the full price per guest.
Can you cater a party at my home in Braintree?
Yes. Homes and gardens are ideal for our cooking stations. We need a flat space about the size of a parking bay for our cooking station, or we can cook nearby and serve a buffet indoors.
Do venues in Braintree need a kitchen?
No. Around Braintree the venues include castle and country house venues, village greens and halls and farmland marquees, and many have no catering kitchen. We bring our own cooking equipment and certified gas, or the food van, and only need a reasonably flat spot near your guests.
How far ahead should I book for an event in Braintree?
For a summer wedding or a Christmas party in Braintree, months rather than weeks. Office lunches and smaller parties can often be arranged within a fortnight. A 20% deposit confirms your booking.
