What to know about Thai wedding catering in Chipping Ongar
The nearest station, Shenfield, is about 6 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.
Chipping Ongar has plenty of larger family homes, with room for a bigger guest list at home. Some couples here marry at home in a garden marquee, which gives us room for a full wedding breakfast station and an evening food stall.
About two thirds homes in Chipping Ongar (69%) are detached or semi-detached, so most hosts have a garden or driveway to work with. Plenty of couples here hold the wedding reception in a family garden or paddock with a marquee, and we cook alongside it with our own kit.
Where couples in Chipping Ongar hold their reception
Wedding settings across the Epping Forest district include Waltham Abbey Church and the Royal Gunpowder Mills, North Weald Airfield and the Epping Ongar Railway, and the venues around Chipping Ongar are mostly country estates, golf clubs and barn venues.
Whatever the venue, we cook on site, so the food is served minutes from the wok, and we can run a separate evening food station once the dancing starts.
The drive from our kitchen is about 12 miles via the M11, M25 and A414, roughly 30 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: the Central line serves Epping, Theydon Bois, Loughton, Debden, Buckhurst Hill and Chigwell.

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.”
“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.”
“Mihai and Nok came to our wedding reception and served fully vegan food as we wanted: pad Thai, massaman curry, spring rolls and mango sticky rice. Everyone at the party absolutely loved it!”
