I have never had a caterer before so didn’t know what to expect but it was even better than I could of imagined. I and would definitely book again. Allan was great and the food was amazing. It made my Mums special birthday even more special and it meant I got to enjoy the day too. Every single person commented on how lovely the food was. Thank you so much Allan 😊 More...

They are very friendly and supportive. I am working with them to celebrate my Aunts 100th birthday in June. They are very happy to adapt their menus to suit my needs.

Couldn’t recommend more highly. The food was utterly delicious, presented beautifully, and so skilfully prepared. We felt it was very good value for money and our kitchen was left cleaner than before. Allan was very personable, with excellent communication and adapted to all our needs and requests. We had such a special evening and are already thinking of reasons to use A.T.@Home again. More...

Really pleased with Allan's service and work on the day . Each course of a 3 course menu was amazing (flavour/taste, presentation, everything).
Courses were adjusted for dietary requirements without a fuss. He is a really nice guy too, v personable.
An easy 5 stars. We are already planning to use his services again.

I used Allan and his team for my mum’s 75th party. We had a sit down meal for 24 people and the food was plentiful and delicious. I would not hesitate to recommend Allan and will definitely be booking him again. More...

We were blown away by Allan’s canapes and 3 course meal for our intimate wedding reception at home last night. The canapes were unique and delicious and plentiful. The 3 course menu was stunning and tasted incredible - the portions were generous too! We couldn’t recommend more highly!!! Thank you. More...

What can I say except wow! AT @ Home completely exceeded our expectations. Great quality food and amazing presentation. Great communication and they catered amazingly well to all allergy requests (which were a lot in our case). It really felt like we were in a top class fine dining restaurant and it really made my lockdown 21st extra special! We cannot recommend them enough and will not hesitate to use AT @ Home again, thank you Allan and Emma! More...

If I could give more than 5 stars I would!! I cannot put in to words how impressed and happy we were with Emma and Allan. We hired A.T. @ Home for our micro wedding, which was originally booked for November, but due to Covid moved to December 2020. Emma and Allan were so flexible and understanding! The plans changed numerous times between us booking and the actual day but Emma was quick to reply to my many requests and nothing seemed too much of an ask. The food was to die for and exceptional value for money. We couldn’t have asked for better service or food on the day. We will definitely be using them again for any future dinner parties or events.

I hired A.T. @ Home for my mum's 60th birthday meal and the experience was excellent. Allan created Michelin star quality food and service was fantastic, the kitchen was left spotless and we didn't have to lift a finger. From first enquiry to the event itself Allan and Emma were brilliant. They were more than accommodating to our menu requests and put us at ease with any concerns regarding covid. Will definitely have them back again! More...

I booked A.T. at Home for my partners birthday dinner, it was nothing short of incredible. Allan is incredibly attentive to detail even creating an amazing menu for my partner to keep.
Every course from the canapés to dessert tasted amazing. Allan has an ability to come up with flavour combinations that work very well together.
We can't wait to book Allan again for a special occasion in the future!

I forgot to mention in my previous review, that the value is excellent. A.T. also tend to charge per head, all in, which I find makes the process much simpler.

Had a fantastic experience with A.T. for my birthday dinner party in October. Alan kindly met all requests and requirements in regards to the menu and the quality was outstanding. Emma was wonderful in making it all happen logistically and Charlotte, who served us, was a delight on the night. So happy I found this very impressive family run operation... my guests were blown away with the delicious food and I have already booked them again for December. More...

Simply amazing service! Allan and Emma were fantastic with organizing and amending due to changing circumstances and then on the night, Allan serviced Michelin star standard food, whilst being wonderfully respectful in the kitchen, leaving it cleaner than when he arrived. The food was so good and all a great value! I will certainly be using you guys again. More...

We used A.T.@ Home for our Golden Anniversary celebration with our family. Allan and Emma were so helpful in the planning of the event. The dinner was for six of us and it didn't feel in the least bit obtrusive having Allan there. The food was outstanding, and Allan also catered for two who had dietary requirements. I would certainly highly recommend Allan and Emma for that special event. They were both friendly and professional. The whole thing totally exceeded expectations; absolutely spot on. More...

Full marks to Allan and Emma for an outstanding service. We had originally planned to host 30 people for our wedding reception. Unfortunately, with Covid restrictions, we had to work out a Plan B, involving four dinners across two separate days, each of 6 people. Allan and Emma were incredible in the way they responded - superb in their flexibility, ready with good suggestions, and - perhaps the most important bit - they delivered wonderful food, on time, and exactly as promised. A great team. We thoroughly recommend! Andy and Deepa More...

Enjoyed the most amazing lunch, there was a huge variety, something for every taste and beautifully presented. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending in the future.
Diane Charvet
The quality of the food served was outstanding. AT@home transform simple, familiar dishes into something divine and also offer dishes and ingredients that most of us may not attempt to cook ourselves.
J Millar
Absolutely delighted with the meal that Allan cooked for me, my husband and a group of friends. His menu suggestion was spot on and cooked to perfection. He is a very calm and respectful person to have around. Cannot recommend highly enough. More...

Thanks very much Jane. So glad you enjoyed it and please don't forget us for any future dinner parties or events.
What’s your signature dish?
We don’t have a signature dish as such as we offer a bespoke service based on the clients tastes and budget. For weddings we offer a wedding tasting beforehand so that the Bride and Groom can pick the dishes they are considering and get to sample them first to make sure they meet their expectations.
How do you go about creating the perfect menu for your clients?
We ask our clients to have a look at the menus on our website and pick 2-3 choices that they like in each category. We can then work with these ideas to help the client build a menu that they’re happy with also taking into account any dietary requirements, likes and dislikes as well as their budget
What do you love most about your job?
The interesting people we meet and the satisfaction of knowing we’ve done a great job and have made our clients happy.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have been a chef working for other people for 30 years. The recent pandemic gave me the push I needed to go it alone whilst still providing an excellent level of service.
Why should our clients choose you?
We are friendly and approachable, Our food is outstanding and we work with our clients to make sure it is right for them. We understand that this is a very important experience for them as more often than not we are asked to cater a monumental event in their lives and so always strive to achieve a delicious unforgettable meal that they can remember for years to come.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
We are considered as providing a service so thankfully are still allowed to cook in people's homes. We use gloves when preparing food and masks when serving. As always, we thoroughly disinfect the area both before we start and when we have finished. We are also offering a full refund if the event needs to cancel due to Covid restrictions which we hope gives our client's peace of mind.
Event and Private Catering
We can cater small events such as intimate dinners for two up to weddings for 200. Cold and hot buffets to canape parties and afternoon teas to sandwich lunches. No event is too big or too small and we can tailor make our offering to your specification.
