Common questions
How does Eden Caterers' focus on sustainability affect menu options and pricing?
Their commitment to seasonal, ethically sourced ingredients typically means menus change quarterly and may cost more than conventional caterers. However, this reduces waste and appeals to environmentally-conscious clients. Request their current seasonal menu to understand available options for your event date before committing.
What happens if we have guests with dietary requirements beyond vegetarian and vegan?
With their established vegetarian focus and free-range offerings, they likely handle plant-based and ethical diets well. Contact them directly about accommodating allergies, gluten-free, religious dietary restrictions, or other specialised requirements to confirm capability and any upcharges.
Are tasting sessions available before booking, and what's included?
Most established caterers offer tastings, but Eden's availability and cost structure aren't specified. Request information about tasting arrangements, how many guests can attend, whether there's a fee, and if tastings can inform custom menu creation for your specific event.
What's the typical turnaround time for quotes and how detailed can menus be customised?
With "contact for pricing," expect to provide event details (guest count, date, venue, dietary needs) before receiving quotes. Clarify whether they offer pre-set menu tiers or fully bespoke options, and how long customisation takes once you've selected your preferred approach.
Do they provide additional services beyond food, such as staffing, equipment rental, or bar service?
Catering companies vary widely in ancillary offerings. Confirm whether Eden includes serving staff, bartenders, table setup, linens, glassware, and plates in their pricing, or whether these are additional services—this significantly impacts your total event budget.
How do they handle logistics for multiple simultaneous events or last-minute adjustments?
Given their London-wide service area, understand their capacity limits and whether they can accommodate changes close to your event date. Ask about their booking calendar management and contingency staff to ensure your event receives appropriate attention.
