We had A&J caterers provide a buffet for my father’s celebration of life event yesterday. Throughout my whole experience talking to them to arrange it all they were friendly, professional and very helpful. The food was delivered on time and was so tasty. Fabulous home cooking! The sausage rolls and satay skewers were an absolute hit. Lots of people asked who we used so we were able to recommend this company. We will certainly be using them again. Brilliant.

We booked James 3 years ago for a 2020 wedding, but a global pandemic got in the way.
We finally had the wedding 23rd September 2021.
I can’t recommend James and his team enough, through all the date changes and even on the day they had some major issues to deal with but they all carried on with so much professionalism and smiles on their faces and the food was superb.

Exceptional! Food prepared and cooked to an incredibly high standard, scallops were perfectly complimented by the black pudding and pea puree accompaniment. For main course we were treated to a melt in the mouth braised shin of beef. The salted caramel and prosecco infused rhubarb was the icing on the cake! Wish this was a weekly treat!

How on Earth have I missed this place?!
After strolling past and smelling amazing food cooking and a quick chat with the super friendly chef, I chose the SaltBeef bagel - oh - my - god. I had to over come the urge to eat it in the car on the way home! This is absolutely without doubt the best SaltBeef I’ve ever had.
I’m taking my children here one weekend because I need to try more of the menu.
Rustic, London vibe reminiscent of Brick Lane, SaltBeef is handmade by them - top notch for street food experience - will definitely be back ��

How much does a Caterer cost?
Your expert caterer will be able to advise you on the most suitable menus and service.
What should I look for when choosing a Caterer?
It is important to know the following before deciding on a catering company:
Event Specialists - Many caterers handle certain types of events on a regular basis, such as weddings and corporate events.
Different cuisines - Caterers might specialise in different kinds of cuisine. Some caterers may provide a fine dining experience while others excel at barbecues that suit company picnics.
Special requirements - If you have special requirements for the food or a specific menu in mind make sure your caterer is happy to meet those requirements.
Venue - Your gathering might be taking place at someone’s home, a venue or outdoors. It can be helpful if your caterer has worked at the venue before.
Tastings - Ask for a tasting to make sure the food is of a high standard. Most caterers will prepare one for you at no charge, allowing you to assess the quality of their cooking before you hire them.
How do I check a Catering Company’s credentials?
You could look for caterers with a foundation degree, higher national diploma or degree in Professional Cookery and Culinary Arts.
Before you choose a caterer, you could read testimonials and see pictures of their food on their website.
You could also look at their profile page on Bark and read reviews from past customers, too.
