PARTIES & SPECIAL GATHERINGS

Whether you're planning a birthday bash, a hen or stag do, a staff party, a christening, a wake, or any special gathering, we’d love to be part of it. Our team can provide everything from beautiful sharing platters to hearty feasts and party-perfect bites—all made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients.

We’ll work with you to create your dream menu, and whether you already have a venue or need a space to host, we’ve got you covered. We can bring the food to you, or you can hire our space to make things even easier. Depending on the size of your gathering, you could even add an interactive cooking element—perfect for team parties or hen dos, where your guests can get hands-on with the food and have some fun before tucking in!

Let’s Celebrate!

HOST YOUR PERFECT CELEBRATION

Already have a venue? Great! We can bring the feast to you—whether it’s a cosy gathering at home, a pop-up in your office, or a festival in the middle of a field. We cater for groups of 40 to 500, wherever your celebration takes you.

Still looking for the perfect spot? Our kitchen and dining space could be just what you need. Over the years, it’s hosted everything from intimate dinners to lively parties, creating a warm and welcoming space to celebrate. We can seat 25–30 guests for a relaxed three-course meal or accommodate 40–50 people for a more informal, house-party-style event where everyone can mingle between the kitchen and dining area.

Wherever and however you want to celebrate, we’re here to make it special. Get in touch to start planning!

MAKE YOUR PARTY SIZZLE WITH A COOKING WORKSHOP

Let’s get cooking

Looking for a way to make your celebration even more memorable? Why not add a hands-on cooking workshop to your party or gathering? It’s the perfect way to get your guests involved, have some fun, and create a feast to remember.

For smaller groups (6–12 guests), we’ll guide you through a fun, interactive session where you’ll learn how to prepare three delicious dishes. From hands-on prep to guided demonstrations, you and your guests will work together to create a party worthy feast. Afterward, you’ll sit down together to enjoy the fruits of your labour!

For larger groups (12–24 guests), we’ll split the group into two teams, with one group working in the kitchen and the other in the dining room. You’ll get to swap places and work together to prepare your meal—before sitting down to enjoy the tasty creations as a group.

Whether it’s a team-building event, a hen do, or just a fun way to spend time with friends and family, our cooking workshops are a great way to add some flavour to your celebration. Get in touch to start planning your hands-on dining experience!

  • Coexist did us proud for my 80th birthday tea-party. We had used them to cater for a Wake, so we knew their food was excellent. Once again, everything they did was magnificent - not just the food, but the care taken to label all the beautiful dishes and the serving platters…This team is completely professional and produces the most delicious food, served with care and elegance. Can't recommend them highly enough!

  • Such an incredible evening: the food was extraordinarily good, beautifully presented, delicious, local, seasonal and varied. Dietary requirements were all catered for beautifully, the venue is gorgeous and the team were an absolute dream to work with. All of that and the delicious food and exquisite service supports the incredibly valuable work that they do. Couldn't recommend them highly enough.

  • Coexist catered my 40th birthday meal. The food was a delicious shared feast with incredible flavours. Kelly was great to communicate with, providing thoughtful seasonal menu options to choose from. The event was made extra special by the professional service from Coexist. I'd highly recommend them if you're planning a special celebration.
