What our Customers say

Amy

The chef was great. The food delivered was plentiful, healthy and delicious, just like we’d requested. We had Asian this time and look forward to trying another cuisine the next time we book

Ben

Delicious and filling experience! Chef Mark was fantastic. He cooked up a feast with our party saying it was the best lunch they’ve ever had. We had a concoction of British, Mexican and American dishes that were out of this world. We highly recommend Chef Mark and look forward to booking him for a dinner soon.

Emmanuelle

We ordered for a work party for our team of 20 people. The food was delicious. All the allergies and food preferences like gluten-free were taken care of. Truly the flavours took us away. The spices were amazing.

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.

Hire Caterers for Parties at Home

Several things are worth considering when hiring caterers for home parties. First off, the type of event. This is crucial as it sometimes influences the menu and decor. Is it a garden-themed birthday party? A housewarming party? Or a private luxury event? Whatever the answer is, the caterer you choose should be predisposed to accommodate it all. 

Another factor that’s worth considering is the number of guests that are to attend. Sure, the term ‘private’ implies a small gathering, but we’ve come to recognise that multiple clients have different interpretations of ‘private’. It can mean 20 people to one and 100 to another. So, the caterer you hire should be equipped to handle either interpretation. 

Next, the dietary restrictions. Your guests shouldn’t have to starve at your home party because you don’t have options that won’t make them sick or aren’t against their beliefs. Hence, from kosher to halal, plant-based to gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free, etc., you should have options they can eat. Therefore, you would need a private caterer to work with these dietary restrictions and create a mouth-watering, robust menu plan that everyone can enjoy. 

Finally, several hosts forget that food is more than just fuel for the body. To some, it’s tied to their heritage, culture, experiences and memories. Thus, if you want to create an immeasurable impression as a host, you should hire a caterer that can create cuisines of different nationalities. From Italian to Pan Asian, Mexican, Middle Eastern, European, Indian, Caribbean, French or African cuisines, the caterer you hire should be talented enough to prepare diverse local and intercontinental cuisines as authentically as possible. 

The points above are criteria you should prioritise when selecting caterers for a house party. However, if you choose a yhangry caterer, these criteria and much more will be satisfied. Here’s what yhangry’s local caterers offer.

Yhangry’s Caterers for Small Parties

‘Caterers near me’, ‘party caterers near me’, ‘private caterers near me’, ‘event caterers near me’, etc., are the keywords often used when searching for caterers on search engines like Google. Sure, Google will output location-sensitive results. However, you would still have to sieve through the millions of results to get recommendations for caterers or catering services you can hire. There’s still more work to be done as caterers on this shortlist still need to be vetted before you decide.

Regarding the previous paragraph, it’s clear that finding a private party caterer involves painstaking work. Sometimes, even when it seems like you’ve found one, their expensive quotes can send you into a trance. If only there were a way to locate the finest caterers for small parties in the UK without falling into Google’s wormhole or breaking the bank. Well, with yhangry, there is.
