Making your Heybridge Basin event easy

The nearest station, North Fambridge, is about 6 miles away, so most guests arrive by car. With most guests driving, it helps to plan parking and leave a clear route for our van to reach the cooking area.

Heybridge Basin has plenty of larger family homes, with room for a bigger guest list at home. In bigger houses we can serve indoors in the kitchen or conservatory and cook outside, keeping cooking smells out of the house.

Three in four homes in Heybridge Basin (88%) are detached or semi-detached, so most hosts have a garden or driveway to work with. That suits our street food set-up: a gazebo and cooking station on the lawn or patio, with guests helping themselves from the food station.

Any venue in Heybridge Basin, indoors or out

Around Heybridge Basin we cook at waterside and marina venues, sailing and yacht clubs, farm barns and village halls. The Maldon district is also home to Hythe Quay and the Thames sailing barges, Promenade Park in Maldon, Heybridge Basin and Burnham-on-Crouch quayside.

The drive from our kitchen is about 13 miles via the A414, B1018 and B1010, roughly 30 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: Maldon has no station; Burnham-on-Crouch and Southminster are on the Crouch Valley line.

Crowd favourites include Nok's hand-rolled spring rolls, Thai golden fish cakes, Som Tam green papaya salad and Veg Gun Peacemaker stir fry, and we build each menu around your guests, your budget and the style of your event, with mild versions for children and clear allergen labels on everything.

“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.”
Tilly M.
“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!”
Ruby O.
“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.”
