Standing Reception Menu
Keep the party going by bringing out new items to surprise your guests, starting with delightful canapés, later in the evening we offer something a little more substantial such as tapas or small plates dishes to allow people to feel that they have eaten well.

French Family Style Menu One
French Family style is where the food is plated on larger platters on the centre of the table and the guests help themselves from the centre just like at home. This is nice for the guests as there is minimal wait for the table to be served. The plates are traditionally replenished throughout the meal.
Staffing and equipment costs are not included in the menu price.
