Our Clients

Yes, we cater for both corporate and private Christmas celebrations across London, Kent, Surrey and Sussex. Our corporate Christmas catering includes everything from office lunches and canapé receptions to full-scale Christmas parties at hired venues. We provide menus tailored to your team or client event, with service options ranging from delivery-only to fully staffed and managed events. December is our busiest month of the year, so booking early is strongly advised to secure your preferred date.

Yes, we offer dedicated Christmas menus designed for the festive season. These menus showcase seasonal produce, indulgent festive flavours, and beautifully presented dishes that suit a wide variety of events. You can download our sample Christmas menu here. We also adapt our Autumn/Winter menus for festive occasions and are happy to design bespoke menus to reflect your theme, guest preferences, or company brand.

Absolutely. At Salters Events, no guest is ever left out of the celebration. We regularly create menus for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free and other allergen-specific diets. Our chefs are experienced in developing inclusive dishes that are just as flavourful and beautifully presented as the rest of the menu. All dietary requirements are carefully managed and clearly labelled, so you and your guests can relax and enjoy the food with confidence.

This includes florists, photographers, event stylists, entertainers, and more. Our team can recommend and connect you with reliable professionals to make your celebration as stress-free as possible.

For Christmas catering where disposables are required, we only use sustainable, eco-friendly options. Our disposables include palm leaf platters, compostable boxes, reed pulp plates, wooden cutlery, paper straws, and unbleached recycled napkins. All items are either compostable at home or recyclable, so you can enjoy your event knowing it won’t compromise your environmental values.

We work with a carefully chosen group of passionate, professional local suppliers. Wherever possible, we use seasonal and locally sourced produce delivered fresh to our South East London kitchen. This allows us to support independent producers and guarantee quality ingredients for your Christmas catering.

Yes. We work with a wide range of venues in London, Kent, Surrey and Sussex, and can recommend the right one for your Christmas party. Whether you’re looking for an elegant period property, a modern city space, or something a little unusual, we can help you find the ideal venue to match your budget and style. Our position as a nominated caterer at several locations means we can also advise on spaces that we know work beautifully with our service.

It depends on the style of catering you choose. For canapé receptions, we usually recommend 6–9 canapés per guest for a pre-dinner event, or 10–12 canapés per guest if they are the main food offering. If you’d like to serve more substantial options, we suggest combining canapés with grazing boards, fork buffets, or bowl food. Our team will happily guide you through planning the right quantity for your event to make sure your guests are satisfied.

We recommend booking as early as possible, especially for December dates which are always in high demand. Many corporate clients confirm their Christmas catering 3–6 months in advance. While we’ll always do our best to accommodate late enquiries, early booking gives you the best choice of menus, service styles, and available dates.

We partner with professional bar companies who can provide a full drinks service for your Christmas event, from festive cocktails and champagne to fine wines and alcohol-free options.

If you already have a drinks supplier in place, our team will be happy to serve the drinks they provide, ensuring everything runs smoothly on the day.

We understand that guest numbers often shift in the run-up to an event. Final numbers are usually confirmed one month before your Christmas party, at which point your final invoice will be raised. If numbers change slightly after that, we’ll always do our best to accommodate, though larger changes may affect your final cost.

Yes. We regularly cater Christmas events in offices, marquees, private homes, and unique venues across London and the South East. Whether your event is in a boardroom, an historic venue, or even outdoors, our team will adapt the catering and service to suit the space.
