Thai Catering in West Mersea

Planning your event in West Mersea

The nearest station, Wivenhoe, 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.

West Mersea 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 West Mersea (83%) 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 West Mersea, indoors or out

Around West Mersea we cook at coastal and riverside venues, university and conference spaces, village halls and garden marquees. The City of Colchester is also home to the University of Essex at Wivenhoe Park, Colchester Zoo at Stanway, Mersea Island and its oyster beds and Dedham Vale, Constable country.

The drive from our kitchen is about 24 miles via the A12 and A120, roughly 50 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.
