A spread for an intimate get-together
Afternoon tea works neatly for a baby shower, birthday or small social gathering where people want to sit, talk and share food. We can cater for a group of around 10 guests, making this a useful choice when a large event package would feel excessive. Our homemade approach runs through the selection, with the current choices presented clearly so you can understand the variety and portion style. Tell us what you are celebrating, how many people will attend and when you plan to serve the food.
Plan presentation, timing and quantities
A good afternoon tea needs enough variety without leaving you with an awkward amount of food. We discuss quantities per guest, along with dietary requirements and the current selection. Please also explain whether you will collect the order or need arrangements discussed for the venue. Event timing and presentation matter, particularly if the food must be set out before guests arrive. By sharing these details early, you can choose an afternoon tea that fits the size and shape of your gathering.
