Christmas Party Catering in Tiptree
Swap the usual turkey for something your team or family will remember: a Thai Christmas party in Tiptree, with warming curries, satay and spring rolls cooked fresh.
Tiptree is best known as the home of Wilkin & Sons and its jam, and sits among orchards and farmland between Colchester and Maldon, with barn venues and big gardens all around.

What to know about Christmas party catering in Tiptree
Three in four homes in Tiptree (78%) are detached or semi-detached, so most hosts have a garden or driveway to work with. Gardens here suit a garden party with a cooking station on the patio and food served straight from the wok.
Tiptree is a settled, close-knit community where many families have lived for years. Established communities suit milestone birthdays, ruby and golden anniversaries and family reunions, often with several generations at the table.
Hosting a party in Tiptree
Parties in and around Tiptree usually happen at university and conference spaces, village halls and garden marquees, 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.
December is our busiest month, so Christmas parties in Tiptree are best booked in October or November.
The drive from our kitchen is about 17 miles via the A12 and A120, roughly 40 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: Colchester and Colchester Town stations link to London Liverpool Street and the Sunshine Coast line.
