Thaxted is a small town with a timber-framed Guildhall, a vast church and a long tradition of Morris dancing. Gustav Holst lived here while writing The Planets.

What to know about Thai party catering in Thaxted
Thaxted has plenty of character, with 29% of its homes built before 1919. Older places usually have a church hall, a village hall or a historic pub that makes a characterful venue, and we check the rules on cooking and power in advance.
Thaxted has plenty of larger family homes, with room for a bigger guest list at home. Larger homes mean bigger guest lists at home, so two stations work well: one for mains and one for satay and starters.
The nearest station, Elsenham, 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.
Hosting a party in Thaxted
Parties in and around Thaxted usually happen at airport hotels and offices, country estates and barn and tithe barn 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 20 miles via the M11, A120 and B184, roughly 45 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: Audley End, Newport and Stansted Mountfitchet are on the line to London Liverpool Street and Cambridge.
Build your Thai party catering menu
Our whole menu is available for Thai party catering in Thaxted. A good start is Mango Sticky Rice, Sukhumvit Pad Thai and Gai Satay with Thai prawn crackers and spring rolls, but every menu is built around your guests, with vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free dishes and clear allergen labels on everything.
