Brilliant Burgers!

Karl and his team were excellent and the food supplied was superb. Everybody fed was raving about the quality of the food. We would 100% use The Steatery's services again.

A very special experience

From our very first conversation I had confidence in Karl and his professional approach to our booking. On the day of our dinner party he sent his head chef, James, to cook for us and Elsa to serve and they were both excellent and attentive without being intrusive. The food was superb and everything went smoothly from the time they arrived until their departure, leaving the kitchen immaculate. We are very happy customers

Perfect for the occasion, the menu choice great

Communication from enquiry onwards was superb, menu choice was fantastic. Disappointed that the chef I spoke with was actually not the chef that came and at no point was this mentioned however the chef we had was very good. Only let down was that the plates were cold and therefore food only warm. Easily rectified would hire Gareth again. Thank you

Reliable caterers, great food.

Karl took on this job in Cambridge, his kitchens are in Nottingham.
We had a 3 course dinner for my daughter's 21st at a venue called St Paul's Church in Hills Road. A beautiful place with plenty of space.
Karl brought his staff and produced food for 150. He was extremely pleasant, calm and everything worked out well. Brought China and cutlery, set tables and cleared. Staff were very efficient and pleasant.
We had a choice of dishes on a menu, which we choose beforehand, ie 2 starters, 2 main plus vegetarian option, 2 desserts. Also any other dietary was sorted ie gluten free, vegan, diary free. I would highly recommend Chef Karl Tyler.

Great communication and delicious food!

Karl had great communication from the start. He designed a 1920’s themed menu for my party taking into account a few different dietary requirements, and accommodating last minute changes in the numbers. His Chef Dave arrived early, delivered delicious food perfectly on time and left the kitchen cleaner than when he arrived! Would definitely recommend!

Spectacular food!

Karl created an amazing Mediterranean tapas/ bowl food menu for my 40 birthday party. From the get go he was professional
and very quick to answer any questions. He worked closely with us to finalise the exact menu we wanted and the food on the night more than delivered- it was fantastic!! Everyone raved about it and it made the night! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Karl.
