Our venue

Cold Buffet

For something much less formal, with a variety of options for your guests, our delivered finger buffets are great for any type of event.

Hot Buffet

If you want something served hot but not a formal sit down meal, then our versatile hot fork buffets would be a great option.

Street Food

Got plenty of hungry mouths to feed, but looking for something less formal than a 3 course meal? Our street food, cooked and served on-site, is what you need.

Canapes

Canapés make a great option at launch and promotional events, where you want your guests to be able to mingle and interact – we can even develop a themed menu for your guests.

Sit-down 3 & 2 course meal

Organising a function, party, or other celebration? Our formal dinners will be the right fit for your event. We pride ourselves on creating dishes from scratch, using the finest ingredients from local suppliers.

BBQ

The perfect choice for your summer party or event. Nothing beats barbecued and slow-roasted meats cooked to perfection and served to your guests in the warm English sun with a cool drink.

"Thank you so much to Lovejoy Catering and Events, especially to Joey and Jen for making the booking process easy and stress free from start to finish. Also a huge huge thank you to the chefs for the incredible food, everyone was so impressed with the high quality standard of food that was delivered. I can’t even put into words how amazing the salted caramel desert was or the Camembert starter!

"Our vegan and vegetarian guests were also very complimentary to their meals! Waiting staff were all extremely professional and any questions or queries we had during the day were answered and solved straight away. Thank you again, Mr and Mrs Draper .”

"Lovejoy Catering and Events provided our catering and bar service for our wedding in June 2019, they were excellent from start to finish Jen and Joey have been there to help throughout, On the day I knew I didn't have to worry, every part of the day went smoothly thanks to them and their team.

The food was delicious and very well presented, all of our guests commented on how great the food was, we also had the fish/chips and bacon rolls for our evening option which went down extremely well.

If we have another event would definitely use Lovejoy Catering and Events again.”

"I participated in a charity quiz where the desserts were provided by Lovejoy Catering and Events which were all delicious and varied in selection. I hope to get the opportunity to try them another time.”

"Fantastic service from start to finish. As soon as I began conversations around the event, they helped with everything from suggesting menus that would work with my guests to timings to how they good serve everyone and prepare given the space. The event itself was seamless, in constant communication around timings and next courses and cleared up quickly once desserts had gone out to leave us to party the night away. Most of all the food was excellent!!!!.”

"Thrilling from start to finish, top quality production with everyone delivering top class performances, something for the whole family, will leave you wanting more 5/5'

In all seriousness I was at a fundraiser for Kids Inspire hosted by Lovejoy Catering and Events and it was superb. Raffle, silent auction and casino were fantastic and I may be a little biased as I won a raffle prize!

The food was top quality with good portion sizes and each course delivered in appropriate time. It was just such a welcoming experience and raising money for charity that I left happy.

If you need caterers for an event, I would strongly recommend Lovejoy Catering and Events”

The chef Dan’s food was absolutely show stopping, delicious and beautifully presented! The staff were friendly, polite and professional, a huge thank you to Manager Joey and Events Manager Jen -they really went the extra mile and made sure everyone was happy throughout the evening. Sarah and Genna were also brilliant. We had an excellent time and so much fun - the live entertainment, DJ, casino, raffle and auction were brilliant.

"I used Lovejoy Catering and Events for my son Ace's 1st birthday party, firstly Genna who was our caterer for the day was on time, set up before hand and ensured we were happy with what was about to be served, personally I highly recommend Lovejoy Catering and Events, Jen our events manager was very helpful and accommodating, her professionalism speaks for itself, top class and ensured all was well through out the day, as for the customer service, now that is what makes Lovejoy Catering and Events stand out from the rest, as well as the good food lets not forget that, the service I received from both Jen and Joey was first class.

The food well where do I start, Fresh, Enjoyable, Tasty and just what we required, 90 % of our guests mentioned how nice the food was, that says it all and they even asked for details for their own upcoming events, I will use them again.

Finally I urge you looking for a good catering service look no further and use Lovejoy Catering and Events as it is Value for money, Professional, Helpful, Accommodating, Reliable, Trustworthy and most importantly they have lovely food.

9 stars from the Boateng's
