The Sicilian Taste

Welcome to The Sicilian Taste! We bring the vibrant, rich, and authentic flavours of Sicily straight to your venue or home in Oxfordshire. Unlike generic Italian catering chains, our menus are 100% bespoke and crafted from scratch using traditional family recipes. We specialise in high-quality hot and cold buffets designed around your exact taste, budget, and guest requirements. We are highly flexible and naturally offer fantastic vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. As an example of what we can achieve, our signature £60 Full-Course Feast Experience includes hand-rolled crisp Arancini canapés, traditional sweet-and-sour aubergine Caponata, authentic regional Sicilian mains, and freshly-piped sweet ricotta Cannoli for dessert. However, we easily scale our formats up or down (ranging from £15 to £60+ per guest) to perfectly fit a relaxed finger-food layout or a smaller budget. Whether you are planning an intimate birthday celebration, a corporate gathering, or a wedding, we work closely with you to design a unique Sicilian feast your guests will never forget.

The Sicilian Taste was born out of a deep passion for the rich culinary heritage of Sicily. Starting with our popular artisan street food stalls at local Oxfordshire markets, we quickly expanded into bespoke private catering. We are inspired by traditional family recipes, using fresh ingredients to hand-craft every single dish—from our golden, crisp arancini to our authentic cannoli. Our mission is to bring a real, unforgettable taste of Mediterranean warmth and hospitality to every event we cater.

With years of experience cooking authentic family recipes passed down through generations, we have established a strong local reputation in Oxfordshire. We are regular, trusted traders at regional markets, including the Banbury Markets, where we serve hundreds of local food lovers. This extensive, hands-on street food experience allows us to manage high-volume event catering seamlessly while maintaining strict artisan quality.

We typically cater for private clients hosting milestone celebrations, including garden weddings, birthday parties, anniversaries, and family gatherings across Oxfordshire. We also serve corporate clients looking for vibrant, high-quality sharing platters and authentic business lunch spreads.

We are a fully registered food business in the UK, operating under strict local authority guidelines. Our team holds professional Food Hygiene certifications (Level 2), and we maintain full Public Liability Insurance to cover all private, corporate, and wedding event locations across the country.
