Emmanuel and his team provided canapes and drinks for a garden party at home after my wedding on 28 June. It was the second time that I had worked with them and, as before, the food, drinks and service were all first class. Many of the guests told me how impressed they were with both the food and the service. Me too. If you decide to ask Purpose to provide your catering, you can be very confident that you won't be disappointed.
From start to finish of our consultation, tasting and then wedding day, Emmanuel was on hand to answer any questions, advise on seasonal favourites as well as keep an eye on timings. His team were fantastic and delivered a seamless reception at Temple Church, with delicious canapes. Thanks also for the knife Mani!
We had Emmanuel, Chris, and the team cater our wedding. Emmanuel made things incredibly easy and his team were wonderful. The food was delicious and they went above and beyond with their service. Highly recommend!
Had Emmanuel and his team cater my 50th, for around 40 guests choosing from his Canapes and Bowl Food menu. From start to finish everything was super easy, Emmanuel is great to talk to in terms of the food and the ambience you're going for. He immediately got it and put together a lovely menu, the cuisine all of the highest standard, every dish was great but for me the Seabass and the Tuna were the best. His team a Chef and 3 wait staff were so attentive and on point, could not have asked for more. Lovely to deal with from start to finish. Would not hesitate to hire again.
Special thanks to Emmanuel and his team for making our son's first birthday party a memorable and enjoyable day! 15 of our dearest friends enjoyed the wonderful canapes and bowl-food prepared by the team. Everything taken care of, the service was first-class and we couldn't have been happier with the overall experience. Nobody easier to work with and genuinely wonderful person!
