How far in advance should we book a corporate Christmas party?
Most London clients confirm between September and October for December dates. Later enquiries are welcome — we keep some December capacity back specifically for late briefs.

Private chefs for corporate Christmas parties across London — festive canapé receptions, plated three-course dinners and grazing service, cooked on site in your office, members' club or hired venue. No banqueting trays, no hotel function room compromise.
London teams book us when the Christmas party has to feel like a genuine thank-you. Our chefs build a festive menu around your people and dietary needs, bring their own kitchen set-up where needed, and hand you a room that runs itself from the first glass to the last plate.
Trusted by London businesses and households since 2020.
Quick Answers
Corporate Christmas Party Chef London — quick answers
Can you cater a Christmas party in our own office?
Yes. Our chefs regularly build a pop-up kitchen inside offices with nothing more than a power supply and a service area. We handle set-up, service, waste and full clear-down.
Can you cover vegetarian, vegan, halal and allergen requirements?
Always — alternatives are designed alongside the main menu rather than added afterwards, so every guest gets a genuine festive course.
Do you provide staff, drinks and glassware?
Yes. Front-of-house staff, bar staff, sommelier service, glassware, tableware and linen can all be arranged as part of the quote.

Corporate Christmas Party Chef across London
London moves quickly and judges hospitality on detail — our chefs cook to that standard daily, from the City to Mayfair, Belgravia, Soho and Canary Wharf. Across the City, Mayfair, Canary Wharf, Belgravia, Soho and the West End, our chefs deliver corporate Christmas party chefs to a single, faultless brief — sourced locally, cooked on site and finished to restaurant standard.
Built around the brief
December books out early in London — venues, chefs and front-of-house teams all go first. We recommend confirming your date by early October, though we hold capacity for late briefs and will always try to make a December date work.
London venues & households we work in
We cater regularly inside London offices, private members' clubs, hired townhouses, country estates and private residences. Every venue is pre-walked where possible, with kitchen-grade hygiene, full equipment mobilisation and a clean exit at the end of service.
