Mr & Mrs Board
Thankyou again for catering our lunch for the day after our wedding at such short notice. You guys were so accommodating in your menu in helping us find a balance to suit requirements and budget and the food on the day was superb. We didn’t lift a finger and your set up and service was seamless. Great food, great service - could not have been happier. More...

The barbecue was delicious and I had to try all the salads to accompany it. So we had a really lovely time. Our request was promptly replied to and very helpful. The set up and clearing up were good. Excellent quality food for the price. No cheap rubbish! Very nice choice. I loved the spicy burger, then tried a gorgeous pork chop which wasn’t dry at all. Thumbs up. More...

We really enjoyed the barbecue Alex made for us . Good food beautifully prepared. I will strongly recommend him to my friends.
Mr Roberts
Alex is without a doubt a very talented chef but also a very nice person to be around aswell. He was able to adapt a 9 course tasting menu to meet our allergy needs and the food that arrived was faultless.
Each course was well timed giving the feel you were in an actual restaurant, the ingredients used where of a high quality and his ability to work clean, tidy and professional in a very small, hot and dark room was very impressive. Highly recommend Alex to anyone, if I\'m in the area again will defiantly be the first on my call list for a dinner party. Cheers for a great night made extra special by your hospitality!

Bruntwood Property Management
Just wanted to say a huge thank you for providing such a delicious BBQ last night. I can only comment on the vegetarian options but they were all delicious and I'm regretting not bringing all the left over potatoes back to Manchester for my lunch. We had great feedback from all our guests and Craig, our Director of Bruntwood Leeds, was very happy. We really appreciate you stepping in at the last minute and pulling it all together with such short notice. More...
What’s your signature dish?
Having travelled and trained throughout Europe we take much inspiration from classical French and modern European cuisine;
Poached & roasted duck breast with buttered Jerusalem artichoke purée, baby root vegetables, aromatic fennel and a blackberry-cabernet sauce. This dish is brought to life (and up to date!) with a crispy duck crackling crumble, and garnished with dehydrated blackberry powder.
How do you go about creating the perfect menu for your clients?
We find that the joint effort of developing a custom menu is one of the most enjoyable and rewarding aspects of our work - creating something unique with gestures and nuances hinting of the larger occasion gives a real connection between the food and the event - and a great talking point too!
This is probably the greatest benefit over restaurant dining, and gives a host a sense of pride and ownership over the menu they design, even taking a little credit from their guests for their amazing menu!
What do you love most about your job?
We at TheCatermen love the variety as much anyone - no two events are the same and we get the opportunity to exercise our culinary skills across a broad spectrum of dishes, styles and cuisines.
Also having experience in professional menu development we love to see a concept develop and grow, until the final result really “makes sense” - dish by dish, from the first bite to the last.
What inspired you to start your own business?
It is impossible to find such creative freedom anywhere else on the planet! Even running a brick-and-mortar restaurant has its limitations as you must stick with the cuisine or style that your brand becomes known for- we on the other hand get to play with a great many exotic and exciting culinary creations, and we aren’t planning on settling down just yet!
Why should our clients choose you?
Our clients choose us for our personality- as this is so clearly exhibited in every delicious plate we serve.
For us, cooking is a truly expressive art form - and it happens to be delicious too!
