Best For: Corporate lunches and business events, private dinner parties, cocktail receptions, small-to-medium gatherings across London
What planners usually like:
- Clear communication and attention to detail reduces back-and-forth coordination and last-minute surprises
- Based in central London (Arch 80) with established local knowledge of venue logistics and delivery constraints
- Monday-Saturday availability accommodates most London event schedules, including weekend events

Things to clarify before booking:
- Request detailed pricing breakdown including per-head costs, service charges, and whether setup/staffing is included
- Confirm their delivery radius and any additional fees for venues outside central London
- Ask about minimum guest counts and whether they accommodate specific dietary requirements (vegan, gluten-free, allergies, religious restrictions)

Common questions
How far in advance should I contact Shoots & Leaves Catering to book them for my event?
Most London caterers require at least 2-4 weeks' notice for standard events, though this varies by event size and complexity. Contact them directly at +44 20 3949 0665 to discuss your specific date and guest count, as availability during peak seasons (spring/summer) may require earlier booking.
What menu options are available, and can they accommodate dietary restrictions?
Their website (shootsandleaves.london) likely displays sample menus, but you'll need to contact them directly to discuss custom options and dietary accommodations. Ask specifically about vegan, gluten-free, halal, kosher, and allergy-friendly alternatives when requesting your initial quote.
Do they provide additional services like staff, equipment rental, or bar service?
The description mentions "clear communication and attention to detail," but the specifics of staffing, equipment, and beverage service aren't detailed. Clarify whether they provide waiting staff, tableware, bar setup, or if you need to arrange these separately—this significantly impacts your overall event cost.
Are there additional costs for events outside their Arch 80 location, and do they cover London-wide delivery?
Location-based surcharges are common for London caterers depending on distance and venue accessibility. Confirm their service area, delivery fees for outer London postcodes, and setup time requirements before finalizing your venue selection.
How do they handle last-minute changes to headcount or menu selections?
Ask about their cut-off dates for confirming final guest counts and making menu adjustments. Understanding their cancellation and modification policies helps you plan confidently, especially if you're expecting RSVPs closer to the event date.
What's included in their quoted price, and how is the total cost structured?
Request an itemized quote that clarifies whether pricing covers food only, service staff, equipment, setup/cleanup, gratuity, and VAT. This prevents unexpected costs and allows you to compare fairly with other London caterers.
