Venues
We have had the good fortune to cater for 25 years at most of the Northamptonshire venues and marquee sites that are available for use by outside caterers. We can therefore usually recommend an appropriate and suitably sized venue option for any client in any locality whether for weddings and small private events or for corporate and sporting events.
We are the resident caterers of Northampton’s stunning Guildhall, which is famous for its Victorian architecture and interior decor which provides an excellent backdrop for both private and corporate events. In addition to the Great Hall (which will take up to 300 people), there is the Court Room, Godwin Room and the Courtyard. The Guildhall is licenced for Weddings and Civil Partnerships.

A large new venue near Kettering is The Ritz, a modern, contemporary venue which opened in October 2011 and who have engaged us as caterers. The Ritz features the Mayfair Suite which accommodates up to 600 guests. This suite have a spectacular, large chandelier as a centre piece and has an overlooking balcony together with coloured mood lighting which can be changed to suit the clients events. There are also smaller suites available and the addition of three bars and on-site car parking means the centre is suitable for virtually any type of corporate or private event.

Marquees are a good choice for both wedding receptions and very large events. They are available with all the internal fittings and equipment that are needed for a successful event. When fully lined they are visually superior to most hotel function rooms and can even be heated in the winter. We are able to recommend a good, reliable marquee company, T&L Marquee Hire, who work to high standards and give great attention to detail.

In Oundle we like the Great Hall which is particularly suited to formal events such as civic banquets, balls and of course, weddings. Also in a rural setting, in the same area, is the very well-equipped Barnwell Village Hall where we have catered for over 20 years. An extension has been added more recently.
Other venues we have catered for extensively for over 20 years include the Saxon Hall, Raunds, the Tithe Barn, Wellingborough, the Kettering Cornmarket Hall and Rushden Hall. All of these are council run venues.
