What to know about Thai wedding catering in Southend-on-Sea

Southend-on-Sea is a large place with about 39,012 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.

Southend-on-Sea has plenty of character, with 46% of its homes built before 1919. Historic churches and halls make lovely ceremony settings here, with the reception moving to a barn, garden or marquee where we can cook freely.

Around 51% of homes in Southend-on-Sea are flats, so many hosts here book a local hall, a pub function room or a communal space, and we come to them. For flats without outdoor space we serve a hot buffet in chafing dishes, cooked fresh and delivered ready to eat.

Where couples in Southend-on-Sea hold their reception

Wedding settings across the City of Southend-on-Sea include Priory Park, Chalkwell and Thorpe Bay beaches and Southend Pier, and the venues around Southend-on-Sea are mostly clubs and sailing clubs, seafront venues and beach huts and hotels.

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 21 miles via the A127 and A13, roughly 45 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: c2c runs to London Fenchurch Street and Greater Anglia to Liverpool Street.

Questions

Thai Wedding Catering in Southend-on-Sea: FAQs

Travel to Southend-on-Sea is included in every quote

c2c runs to London Fenchurch Street and Greater Anglia to Liverpool Street

Can we have a tasting before booking?

Yes, tastings are available for couples. They are paid, and the cost comes off your final invoice when you book. We can also plan the menu with you on a call first.

How many wedding guests can you serve in Southend-on-Sea?

We cater weddings from around 30 guests up to 450. For larger numbers we add more cooking stations and staff so the queue keeps moving.

Can you serve an evening food station as well as the wedding breakfast?

Yes. We can do both, or just the evening: a Pad Thai or curry station at 9pm works well once the dancing starts.

Do you cater weddings at venues in Southend-on-Sea without a kitchen?

Yes. Barns, marquees and gardens with no kitchen at all are exactly what our set-up is for. We bring our own cooking equipment, gas and serving stations, so we only need a flat area near where guests will eat.

How much does Thai catering cost in Southend-on-Sea?

For Southend-on-Sea we quote per guest, with travel already in the price: from £14 for boxed mains, £17 with spring rolls served hot from food stations, or £24 for full food stations and two staff. Minimum spend is £750 (£1,000 for the food truck).

Do venues in Southend-on-Sea need a kitchen?

No. Around Southend-on-Sea the venues include clubs and sailing clubs, seafront venues and beach huts and hotels, 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.

“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.
“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.”
Ella
“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!”
Shannon D.
