Piptree Catering catered my 40th Birthday Party in my garden. From the very beginning the team were amazing. Alice took the time to find out what I wanted, asking about my food preferences and tailoring the party to fit my style. The consultation about the menu was great and it was wonderful to have Richard on the calls to share his expertise on the food and offer new ideas. They could not do enough and were keen to touch base in the build up and check about menu design and check everything was okay. The day of the party was great. The food was amazing and it was greatly received by everyone. I asked for some staff to help with the bar and serving and the team who arrived were amazing. It was clear they all knew each other and worked so well together. However, it was also how helpful they all were. Asking if they could answer the door, show people where to put coats and presents and even offering to look after the dogs when it was their dinner time. I employed a team of wonderful caterers and got an amazing party planner team instead. Lovely people, lovely food, a fabulous day and I would hire them back in a heartbeat!
I found Tiptree on the internet when looking for caterers near to Teddington. The website said they were good and indeed they were. Alice and Richard are delightful and made just the right suggestions for my party for forty. Many of the guests remarked on how good the food was and the service - serving drinks to begin with then helping with the buffet and clearing the plates after each course - was at just the right level, swift and discrete. The website was right! So, luckily, was the weather. Good value too.
Richard and Alice were fantastic at catering for 90 guests at our wedding. They were very innovative when the water cut out for a period of time and even covered the bar for a short period when demand rose. They created some great BBQ platters for the tables and were very willing and helpful in serving our own deserts. Piptree were great at constantly communicating right up to the event and asking helpful questions which had slipped our minds, they really knew what they were doing. We would definitely recommend Piptree to others.
Piptree provided a tasty cold buffet for me for a boat birthday party. The feedback from my guests was very positive, which was good to hear.
Richard and Alice catered a birthday dinner for 25 - Richard created a fantastic small plate menu and Alice tablescaped beautifully! On the night the staff were brilliant - so charming and discrete that my guests insisted they receive a standing ovation before they were allowed to leave… Restaurant quality food and I was able to leave it all to them and relax - I have no hesitation in recommending them and would use them again in a heartbeat.
We hired Piptree catering for our wedding on 24 July, and it was simply delicious. The whole process of finding Piptree, organising tasting with Richard and Alice and them helping event plan our big day was so smooth and we felt really safe in their hands. They went above and beyond with sourcing additional event staff, and on the day itself the team were professional, friendly and personable. They are a small family run company, we chose a three course sit down meal with canapés and we only received compliments on how delicious the food was. Piptree also created a bespoke vegan menu to cater for some of our guests. Would 100% recommend Piptree for any event, not only is the food delicious but the event support was absolutely excellent.
We hired Piptree catering for my best friends surprise 40th which involved two separate surprises on Friday and Saturday. From the beginning, Alice was extremely accommodating and flexible to our needs and designed a menu for both occasions that was ideal. The food was delicious and Richard went the extra mile on Saturday when we had a full catering set up with canapes and Hog Roast. Nothing was too much and it gave a really special feel to the whole day. The quality of food is outstanding and the focus on sustainability and sourcing locally is also a great plus.
We hired Piptree Catering for our wedding in May and they were just brilliant from start to finish - very professional, but more importantly (to us) they were so relatable and made us feel at ease right from the very first conversation. The menu tasting was a beautiful experience, the food was wonderful and they made us feel so special. The big day ran smoothly, the food was just as we hoped and the staff were all amazing and so attentive. Piptree catering really looked after us and made sure to pick up on all the small details that we would never have even thought about. Would recommend them again and again!
Piptree catered for our wedding last Saturday. We hired a boat along the Thames and had a fantastic time. Alice is a lovely person to deal with and thought of all the small details that helped make our day special. Richard, the chef created a delicious menu for us and the food was excellent. We started with champagne and canapes, followed by a three course wedding breakfast. Everything was beautifully presented and delicious. Rene and the team, were fantastic. We wouldn't hestitate to use Piptree again and will definitely recommend their service to friends.
