Thai catering in Wivenhoe
Whatever you are celebrating in Wivenhoe, we bring the whole menu with us and cook it live at your venue, so every plate reaches your guests minutes from the wok rather than hours from a warming cabinet.
Wivenhoe is a riverside town on the Colne, right next to the University of Essex campus, with a quay and old streets that suit small, relaxed parties.
The Colchester district stretches from the Dedham Vale on the Suffolk border down to Mersea Island and the Blackwater estuary.

Planning your event in Wivenhoe
Wivenhoe station is under a mile from the centre of Wivenhoe. Guests can arrive by train, which keeps parking simple and lets everyone enjoy a drink.
About two thirds homes in Wivenhoe (73%) 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.
Wivenhoe has plenty of character, with 20% of its homes built before 1919. Historic buildings often limit what can be cooked indoors, so we cook outside under our gazebo and serve inside.
Any venue in Wivenhoe, indoors or out
Around Wivenhoe we cook at Tudor and historic houses, converted barns, coastal and riverside venues and university and conference spaces. The City of Colchester is also home to Colchester Castle and Castle Park, Layer Marney Tower, the University of Essex at Wivenhoe Park and Colchester Zoo at Stanway.
The drive from our kitchen is about 29 miles via the A12 and A120, roughly 60 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.

What our clients say
Every one of our 66 Google reviews is five stars. A few of them, in our clients' own words:
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
