At The Compleat Dish, we bring the same care and attention to our events as we do to our office catering — thoughtful menus, beautifully presented food, and personal service from start to finish.

Led by chef Nigel James, we specialise in canapé receptions, bowl food, and intimate private dinners across South London and Surrey. 

Whether you’re hosting a birthday celebration at home, a gallery opening, or a relaxed drinks reception, we design menus that feel modern, generous and full of flavour.

Every event is planned personally and prepared from scratch, with careful consideration for vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free guests.

We focus on events of 10–80 guests, where quality and detail matter most.

If you’re looking for chef-led catering with a warm, professional touch, we’d be delighted to help.
