A creative catering company

A few words about us

Founded in 1986, Smith’s Catering is one of the best catering companies in London. We’re a first choice for corporate clients, event production agencies and private weddings and parties. Although we started life in Smithfield, we soon outgrew those premises, upgrading to our custom-built Whitechapel kitchens in 2008. Since then, we’ve expanded our reach considerably. In 2020, wanting to be closer to the heart of the tech start-up district, we opened an office in Shoreditch.

We’re not just catering for business, though. As part of our expansion, we’ve opened a state-of-the-art new kitchen off the M25 in Kent. This strategic location is ideal for weddings, private parties and corporate events throughout Kent, Surrey and elsewhere in Greater London. It’s also our base for developing menus, from creative canapés to gastro-experiments.

Our catering ethos is simple: reliably delivering first-rate food while broadening our culinary horizons. Using fresh seasonal produce from certified British suppliers (the more local the better), we make all our menus from scratch. And we’re fully equipped to meet special dietary needs. In addition to our gluten-free and vegan catering menus, we routinely cater halal.

Our diverse range covers all bases. We offer canapés, breakfasts, lunches, buffets, afternoon teas, and more. Then we have our seasonal menus, including BBQs cateringChristmas menus, and  Wedding catering menus.

Can’t find what you want? Get in touch. Above all, we believe in putting the customer first.
