What an amazing  and stress free way to host at home. Was so easy to select a menu online ( the team is also very helpful on the phone line if you have questions before booking). Food was delicious , chefs were prompt and professional and entertaining. Overall beautiful experience (all while being in the comfort of my own home)

Our Top FAQs

What equipment do I need to provide?

Our chefs usually use the equipment (pots, pans, oven, stone etc), and serve ware (glasses, plates, serving platters, etc) in the customers homes. If you are low on equipment or need the chef to provide this, please add this into your request (this will cost extra). Once booked in, you can directly message or call your chef to confirm on the exact equipment required. In case of BBQ equipment, we suggest hiring from AllensHire as the best option as they deliver within 48 hours and offer both charcoal and gas BBQs.

What is the minimum spend?

The minimum spend is £196.

What happens once I book?

Once you have placed your order, you will receive a booking confirmation e-mail containing further details pertaining to your event and you can also chat with the chef via your account. You can always edit guest number or dishes post booking. You will receive the menus and place cards via post. On the day of your event, the chef will arrive with the ingredients to cook a delicious meal for you while you relax with your friends.

Hire Caterers for Christmas Day Lunch

The festive season is a time for joy and sharing. It’s when we celebrate the past year and look forward to a new one. Great food can help create memories, so a Christmas dinner is an important part of any Christmas event. However, great Christmas dinners are notoriously tricky to create, and making one yourself could mean you miss out on spending time with your loved ones. 

So why not hire a professional caterer from yhangry so you can enjoy the day and not have to worry about the cooking? A caterer can prepare a full Christmas dinner for you and all your guests. 

What Should You Have for Christmas Day Lunch?

There is no one-size fits all Christmas lunch. Everyone has their own tastes, and each will enjoy different aspects of a meal. A qualified caterer will help you create a bespoke menu that suits your specific tastes and those of your guests, including any with dietary restrictions. 

If you’re planning a Christmas lunch for a large group or a work function where you don’t know every guest’s requirements, you might want to order a pre-planned menu with a little bit of everything to ensure no one goes hungry.

You can’t go wrong with a delicious roast turkey and all the trimmings: roast parsnips, carrots, Brussels sprouts, gravy and so much more. You can always get a delicious alternative Christmas meal like a vegan mushroom Wellington or a nut roast if you’re vegetarian.

Pull off the Perfect Christmas Lunch

Hiring a caterer to create a show-stopping Christmas dinner will ensure that the 25th of December will be memorable. If you’re interested in discovering the ideal local caterer, use yhangry. Think of yhangry as a matchmaking service that connects you with the best catering services for your event and budget. 

Remember to contact a catering service before the busy holiday period, as it is a busy time of year, and you don’t want to miss out on those perfectly made Christmas dinners.
