The Bears Table. Wildly Good Food.

Cooking has been my passion and profession for over 35 years. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in busy professional kitchens, developing a love for great food, fresh ingredients and bringing people together around the table.

After many years working as a professional chef, I created The Bears Table to offer something more personal: restaurant-quality food served in the comfort of your own home or chosen venue.

For me, great food is about more than what’s on the plate. It’s about creating memories, bringing people together and making every occasion feel special.

Whether it’s an intimate dinner party, a family celebration or a relaxed gathering with friends, my aim is simple: delicious food, warm hospitality and an enjoyable, stress-free experience from start to finish.

With over 35 years of experience in the hospitality industry, I’ve dedicated my working life to creating great food and memorable dining experiences.

My career has taken me through busy professional kitchens, including many years as a Head Chef, where I’ve gained extensive experience in menu development, kitchen management, event catering and delivering consistently high standards.

Over the years, I’ve catered for everything from intimate dinner parties and family celebrations to larger gatherings and special occasions, adapting my menus and approach to suit each individual event.

Today, through The Bears Table, I bring that wealth of experience directly to my clients, combining professional standards with a relaxed, friendly and personal approach.

I take enormous pride in my work, and nothing gives me greater satisfaction than seeing guests enjoying fantastic food and hosts being able to relax and enjoy their own celebrations.

At The Bears Table, I cater for a wide variety of clients and occasions, from intimate dinner parties and special birthdays to anniversaries, family celebrations, hen parties, corporate gatherings and holiday get-togethers.

My clients are typically people who love great food and want to enjoy a memorable occasion without the stress of shopping, cooking or entertaining.

I offer a flexible range of dining experiences, including elegant three-course dinners, relaxed sharing feasts, Mediterranean-inspired menus, traditional Sunday lunches, BBQs and informal buffets.

Whether you’re celebrating a milestone birthday, hosting friends at a holiday home or simply bringing family together around the table, I tailor the experience to suit your occasion, tastes and budget.

My aim is always the same: fantastic food, friendly service and happy guests, leaving you free to enjoy every moment.

With over 35 years of professional culinary experience, including many years as a Head Chef, I bring extensive knowledge, expertise and a commitment to high standards to every event.

Alongside my practical experience, I hold certifications in Food Safety, Food Hygiene and Allergen Awareness, ensuring food is prepared and served with care, professionalism and a thorough understanding of dietary requirements.

I also hold a DBS certificate, providing additional reassurance to clients welcoming me into their homes.

I take great pride in maintaining excellent standards of cleanliness, food handling and organisation, while delivering a friendly, reliable and professional service.
