Our Testimonials

I could not recommend them more highly

Rated 5 out of 5
“Kirsty was amazing from start to finish. She tailored her menu to all my requests (and there were many!). Communication was excellent. Food and service on the day could not have been better. Kristy’s team took all stress out of my party and were just outstanding. Food was scrumptious! I could not recommend them more highly”.

Kirsty Did an excellent job on the day

Rated 5 out of 5

“Kirsty provided a fantastic service. She communicated well in advance and did an excellent job on the day. All of our guests loved the food!! It was great to go out for our son’s christening and then come back to everything setup and all waste removed. I would 100% recommend!”

Sarah - SW London

Kirsty has catered for us twice now...

Rated 5 out of 5

“Kirsty has catered twice now for the Veterans at our Charity and both times have been absolutely fantastic.


Kirsty is quick to respond and has even helped us out at very short notice. We would 100% recommend and will be using her again in the future.”

Mica - London

Such an amazing experience and the food was so delicious

Rated 5 out of 5

“Such an amazing experience and the food was so delicious. Part of the fun was trying to work out what you were eating, they have plenty of menu to select from. Fabulous! The staff were great and made it more enjoyable. Would definitely do again when they rotate the menu.”

Emine - London

Fantastic food, wonderful people, exceptional service.

Rated 5 out of 5

“This was very short-notice catering for a work event.

We were completely blown away by the quality of the food, the presentation, the relaxed and ready attitude, the reasonable cost and – did I mention how glorious the food was? Pretty much everyone came up to tell me how much they enjoyed it and asked that we get Kirsty back for future events. And we will…

A real find…”

Nothing was too much trouble!

Rated 5 out of 5

“I contacted Kirsty at pretty short notice about catering for a party of 50. She got in touch straight away. Helped plan a menu which had to cater for meat eaters, vegetarians, vegans, gluten intolerance, the list goes on! Nothing seemed to be too much trouble. The presentation was great, the food delicious and the whole experience of dealing with Kirsty was a pleasure. I would 100% recommend Happy Plate and will definitely be using them again in the future.”

Tracy - London

Highly recommend for wedding catering!

Rated 5 out of 5

“Kirsty and her team did a fantastic job with our wedding in July 2022! She worked with us to develop a comprehensive menu within our budget as well as providing full-on events support on the day, setting up everything at the venue, serving food and providing bar-service. Everything ran so smoothly, the food was amazing (with many guests saying it was the best wedding food they had ever had) and we felt in such safe hands with Happy Plate. Highly recommend!”

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some commonly asked questions about Canapé Catering in London. If there’s something extra we can help with, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

What Is Canapé Food Catering?

Canapé catering serves small, elegantly prepared bites to guests. Often paired with buffet-style catering, this style supports smooth guest flow while delivering a refined dining experience, making it a popular choice for a variety of events.

What Types Of Events Are Suitable For Canapé Catering?

Canapé catering works particularly well for standing receptions, corporate events, product launches, weddings, and private celebrations. It suits occasions in London where conversation and movement are encouraged, and is often paired with bowl food to create a more filling yet flexible dining format.

Can Canapé Menus Be Tailored To Dietary Requirements?

Yes. Our bespoke canapé menu can be tailored to accommodate dietary requirements, allergies, and preferences without compromising quality or presentation. This ensures all guests enjoy the experience with confidence, whether the event features canapé-only service or is served alongside other courses.

How Many Canapés Are Recommended Per Guest?

The number of canapés recommended per guest depends on the event length and timing, as well as whether bowl food or additional courses are served. As a guide, service typically ranges from 6 to 10 canapés per guest, with adjustments to suit the occasion's pace and structure.
